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

\frac{\frac{1-x^{2}-x}{x\left(x+1\right)}}{\frac{x-1}{x+1}}
Cancel out x+1 in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{\left(1-x^{2}-x\right)\left(x+1\right)}{x\left(x+1\right)\left(x-1\right)}
Divide \frac{1-x^{2}-x}{x\left(x+1\right)} by \frac{x-1}{x+1} by multiplying \frac{1-x^{2}-x}{x\left(x+1\right)} by the reciprocal of \frac{x-1}{x+1}.
