\frac{x}{x+3}+\frac{7x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Factor x^{2}+x-6.
\frac{x\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}+\frac{7x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x+3 and \left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right) is \left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right). Multiply \frac{x}{x+3} times \frac{x-2}{x-2}.
\frac{x\left(x-2\right)+7x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Since \frac{x\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)} and \frac{7x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{x^{2}-2x+7x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Do the multiplications in x\left(x-2\right)+7x+6.
\frac{x^{2}+5x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Combine like terms in x^{2}-2x+7x+6.
\frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Factor the expressions that are not already factored in \frac{x^{2}+5x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}.
\frac{x+2}{x-2}
Cancel out x+3 in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{x}{x+3}+\frac{7x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Factor x^{2}+x-6.

\frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x+3\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Factor the expressions that are not already factored in \frac{x^{2}+5x+6}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x+3\right)}.
\frac{x+2}{x-2}
Cancel out x+3 in both numerator and denominator.
