For this fraction, we have (3x+2) in both the numerator and the denominator. So, they will be cancelled together.
Then we can notice that we can divide the coefficients in the numerator and the denominator by 9 as 36/9 = 4 and 9/9 = 1

So, the expression now becomes:
(x+7) / 4(x-5) which is the simplest form.
