`\frac{ {a}^(3) - 27 }{ {a}^(2) - 9 } / \frac{ {a}^(2) + 3a + 9 }{a + 3} = \\`

`\frac{ {a}^(3) - 27 }{ {a}^(2) - 9 } * \frac{a + 3}{ {a}^(2) + 3a + 9 } = \\`

`\frac{(a - 3)( {a}^(2) + 3a + 9) }{(a - 3)(a + 3)} * \frac{a + 3}{ {a}^(2) + 3a + 9 } = \\`

`\frac{(a - 3)(a + 3)( {a}^(2) + 3a + 9) }{(a - 3)(a + 3)( {a}^(2) + 3a + 9) } = \\`
