Answer:

10/9x

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with:

8x/3x+6 // 12x^2/5(x+2)

Factor out 3 then multiply the ricprocal of that fraction:

8x/3(x+2) * 5(x+2)/12x^2

Reduce the expression with x+2, then x,

8x/3 * 5/12x

Reduce numbers w/ GCD 4

2/3 * 5/3x

Lasty, multiply the fractions [multiply numerators&denominators seperatly]

2*5/3*3x

and you get...

10/9x [yayyyy!]
