fx\times 3\left(x+2\right)^{3}=x+1
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3\left(x+2\right)^{3}.
fx\times 3\left(x^{3}+6x^{2}+12x+8\right)=x+1
Use binomial theorem \left(a+b\right)^{3}=a^{3}+3a^{2}b+3ab^{2}+b^{3} to expand \left(x+2\right)^{3}.
3fx^{4}+18fx^{3}+36fx^{2}+8fx\times 3=x+1
Use the distributive property to multiply fx\times 3 by x^{3}+6x^{2}+12x+8.
3fx^{4}+18fx^{3}+36fx^{2}+24fx=x+1
Multiply 8 and 3 to get 24.
\left(3x^{4}+18x^{3}+36x^{2}+24x\right)f=x+1
Combine all terms containing f.
\frac{\left(3x^{4}+18x^{3}+36x^{2}+24x\right)f}{3x^{4}+18x^{3}+36x^{2}+24x}=\frac{x+1}{3x^{4}+18x^{3}+36x^{2}+24x}
Divide both sides by 3x^{4}+18x^{3}+36x^{2}+24x.
f=\frac{x+1}{3x^{4}+18x^{3}+36x^{2}+24x}
