\frac{\left(3x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{2}-y^{4}}{\left(-2x\right)^{2}}
To multiply powers of the same base, add their exponents. Add 1 and 3 to get 4.
\frac{\left(3x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{2}-y^{4}}{\left(-2\right)^{2}x^{2}}
Expand \left(-2x\right)^{2}.
\frac{\left(3x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{2}-y^{4}}{4x^{2}}
Calculate -2 to the power of 2 and get 4.
\frac{3x^{2}\left(3x^{2}+2y^{2}\right)}{4x^{2}}
Factor the expressions that are not already factored.
\frac{3\left(3x^{2}+2y^{2}\right)}{4}
Cancel out x^{2} in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{9x^{2}+6y^{2}}{4}
Expand the expression.
