Hi I'm having some problems with this A2 level maths quesition. How do you simplify the following algerbraic fration?:

(x^2 + 4x + 3)/(x^2 + x)

I have used the notation x^2 as 'the square of x'

Also, how do you find the value of x when
log2(x^2 + 4x + 3)-log2(x^2 + x)

My notation for log2 means 'log to the base 2'

It is very tedious for me to try to solve mathematical equations in HTML format. A great site that will help you is:
