\frac{18}{8\left(x-6\right)}+\frac{3x}{8\left(-x+6\right)}
Factor 8x-48. Factor 48-8x.
\frac{18}{8\left(x-6\right)}+\frac{-3x}{8\left(x-6\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 8\left(x-6\right) and 8\left(-x+6\right) is 8\left(x-6\right). Multiply \frac{3x}{8\left(-x+6\right)} times \frac{-1}{-1}.
\frac{18-3x}{8\left(x-6\right)}
Since \frac{18}{8\left(x-6\right)} and \frac{-3x}{8\left(x-6\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{3\left(-x+6\right)}{8\left(x-6\right)}
Factor the expressions that are not already factored in \frac{18-3x}{8\left(x-6\right)}.
\frac{-3\left(x-6\right)}{8\left(x-6\right)}
Extract the negative sign in 6-x.
\frac{-3}{8}
Cancel out x-6 in both numerator and denominator.
-\frac{3}{8}
Fraction \frac{-3}{8} can be rewritten as -\frac{3}{8} by extracting the negative sign.
