$\frac{7}{5}$

$\begin{array}{cccc} & & & \quad \frac{{x}^{2}+5x+6}{{x}^{2}+8x+12} \\ \text{Factor the numerator and denominator.} & & & \quad \frac{(x+2)(x+3)}{(x+2)(x+6)} \\ \\ \\ \begin{array}{c}\text{Remove the common factor}\,x+2\,\text{from} \\ \text{the numerator and the denominator.}\end{array} & & & \quad \frac{(x+2)(x+3)}{(x+2)(x+6)} \\ & & & \quad \frac{x+3}{x+6}\end{array}$

Can you tell which values of x must be excluded in this example?
