In this case substitutions made solving much easier and less chaotic looking. The next thing we learned was to rewrite equations in a way that suits your purpose.

X-1 =1/x therefore: (x-1+y-2 )/(x+y)=(1/x)+(1/y2/(x+y) From there you can simplify it further by multiplying the top and bottom by a common factor‚ in this case it is: x+y2
