\frac{\frac{x^{2}}{x-4}+\frac{2\left(x-4\right)}{x-4}}{2x-2}-1
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply 2 times \frac{x-4}{x-4}.
\frac{\frac{x^{2}+2\left(x-4\right)}{x-4}}{2x-2}-1
Since \frac{x^{2}}{x-4} and \frac{2\left(x-4\right)}{x-4} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{\frac{x^{2}+2x-8}{x-4}}{2x-2}-1
Do the multiplications in x^{2}+2\left(x-4\right).
\frac{x^{2}+2x-8}{\left(x-4\right)\left(2x-2\right)}-1
Express \frac{\frac{x^{2}+2x-8}{x-4}}{2x-2} as a single fraction.
