Factor out the 4.
The answer is y-3/y+3
a = 1/2
3x=2x-12x=-12
67
-3 + -12 = -15
Answer: 12
You can factor it, if you consider that simpler.
19/12
12 / 4 = 3
Actually, I don't really think that you can simplify it, because if you convert them into fractions, there all over 1 and you can't simplify it. You can simplify it if it's: 5 plus 7 DIVIDED by 3. That was when you divide the 12 by 3 in fraction form, the 3 and one switch, and u can simplify 3 into 1 and 12 into four, so there by the answer is 4. (Sorry if confusing)
Perform the indicated subtraction. 12 - 9 = 3
1 over 3
It is 5 over 12.
