Excluded value $->x=-2$

I am not convinced that this can be simplified any further than it already is.

If you factor out you get : $" " ((x+6)(x+6))/(9(x+2))$ and I can not spot anything that can be don with this.

The excludes value is $x=-2$ as this turns the denominator into 0 which is undefined.

How do you simplify and restricted value of (x^2+12x +36)/(9x+18)(x^2+12x +36)/(9x+18)?
