Simplify $ \frac{ \sqrt[3]{16} - 1}{ \sqrt[3]{27} + \sqrt[3]{4} + \sqrt[3]{2}} $ Simplify
$$ \frac{ \sqrt[3]{16} - 1}{ \sqrt[3]{27} + \sqrt[3]{4} + \sqrt[3]{2}} $$

Attempt:
$$ \frac{ \sqrt[3]{16} - 1}{3 + \sqrt[3]{4} + \sqrt[3]{2}} =  \frac{ \sqrt[3]{16} - 1}{ (3 + \sqrt[3]{4}) + \sqrt[3]{2}} \times \frac{ (3 + \sqrt[3]{4}) - \sqrt[3]{2}}{  (3 + \sqrt[3]{4}) - \sqrt[3]{2}}  $$
$$ =    \frac{ (\sqrt[3]{16} - 1) [(3 + \sqrt[3]{4}) - \sqrt[3]{2}]}{ (3 + \sqrt[3]{4})^{2} - 2^{2/3}}  $$
$$ =     \frac{ 3 \sqrt[3]{16} - 3\sqrt[3]{4} + \sqrt[3]{2} + 1}{ (9 + 5 \sqrt[3]{4} + \sqrt[3]{16}) } $$
From here on I don't know how to continue.
I can let $a = \sqrt[3]{2}$, but still cannot do anything.

Let $x=\sqrt[3]2$ then we have $${x^4-1\over x^2+x+3}={x^6-x^2\over x(x^3+x^2+3x)}={4-x^2\over x(2+x^2+3x)}= {(2-x)(2+x)\over x(x+2)(x+1) }$$
$$ = {2-x\over x^2+x}= {(2-x)(x-1)\over x(x+1)(x-1)}= {(2-x)(x-1)\over x^3-x}$$
$$= {(2-x)(x-1)\over 2-x} = x-1$$
Edit: but other solution is much nicer then this one.
