Fill in the Blank

An inventory manager needs to combine two storage allocation formulas, 2x2\frac{2}{x-2} and 5x+3\frac{5}{x+3}, into one simplified equation. The manager knows the least common denominator is (x2)(x+3)(x-2)(x+3). To adjust the first formula so it can be added to the second, the manager must multiply both the numerator and the denominator of 2x2\frac{2}{x-2} by the missing factor ____.
