\frac{\frac{x-3}{x-2}}{\frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)}{x-2}-\frac{5}{x-2}}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply x+2 times \frac{x-2}{x-2}.
\frac{\frac{x-3}{x-2}}{\frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)-5}{x-2}}
Since \frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)}{x-2} and \frac{5}{x-2} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{\frac{x-3}{x-2}}{\frac{x^{2}-2x+2x-4-5}{x-2}}
Do the multiplications in \left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)-5.
\frac{\frac{x-3}{x-2}}{\frac{x^{2}-9}{x-2}}
Combine like terms in x^{2}-2x+2x-4-5.
\frac{\left(x-3\right)\left(x-2\right)}{\left(x-2\right)\left(x^{2}-9\right)}
Divide \frac{x-3}{x-2} by \frac{x^{2}-9}{x-2} by multiplying \frac{x-3}{x-2} by the reciprocal of \frac{x^{2}-9}{x-2}.
\frac{x-3}{x^{2}-9}
Cancel out x-2 in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{x-3}{\left(x-3\right)\left(x+3\right)}
Factor the expressions that are not already factored.
\frac{1}{x+3}
Cancel out x-3 in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{\frac{x-3}{x-2}}{\frac{\left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)}{x-2}-\frac{5}{x-2}}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply x+2 times \frac{x-2}{x-2}.
