Simplifying complex fractions

The video tutorial explains how to simplify a complex fraction by finding the least common denominator (LCD) and using it to eliminate fractions. The instructor demonstrates the process step-by-step, starting with identifying the denominators, calculating the LCD, and multiplying each term by the LCD. This results in a simplified expression without fractions. The final step involves factoring the numerator and denominator to achieve the simplest form of the expression.
