\frac{4\left(2x-5\right)}{12}-\frac{3\left(x+2\right)}{12}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 3 and 4 is 12. Multiply \frac{2x-5}{3} times \frac{4}{4}. Multiply \frac{x+2}{4} times \frac{3}{3}.
\frac{4\left(2x-5\right)-3\left(x+2\right)}{12}
Since \frac{4\left(2x-5\right)}{12} and \frac{3\left(x+2\right)}{12} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{8x-20-3x-6}{12}
Do the multiplications in 4\left(2x-5\right)-3\left(x+2\right).
\frac{5x-26}{12}
Combine like terms in 8x-20-3x-6.
