begin by pulling 2 out of the numerator using the distributive property.
numerator: 2(16x^4 - 25) and now factor
numerator: 2(4x^2 - 5)(4x^2 + 5)
Now go to the denominator. It looks messy but it will break down.
Pull out 4x^2 for the first two terms and 5 for the last 2 terms. Use the distributive property.
denominator: 4x^2(x - 3) - 5(x - 3) now x - 3 is the common term.
denominator: (x - 3)(4x^2 - 5)
Put the two results together.
After canceling out 4x^2 - 5 on both the numerator and the denominator, you are left with.
