Solving a rational equation with two solutions

The video tutorial explains how to solve a complex mathematical problem involving polynomials and fractions. It begins with identifying the least common denominator (LCD) of polynomial expressions, then demonstrates how to multiply equations by the LCD to simplify them. The tutorial covers applying the distributive property, combining like terms, and factoring the resulting equation to find solutions. The instructor emphasizes the importance of checking solutions against constraints to ensure validity.
