\frac{y}{3x}-\frac{5}{4y}
Cancel out 2 in both numerator and denominator.
\frac{y\times 4y}{12xy}-\frac{5\times 3x}{12xy}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 3x and 4y is 12xy. Multiply \frac{y}{3x} times \frac{4y}{4y}. Multiply \frac{5}{4y} times \frac{3x}{3x}.
\frac{y\times 4y-5\times 3x}{12xy}
Since \frac{y\times 4y}{12xy} and \frac{5\times 3x}{12xy} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{4y^{2}-15x}{12xy}
Do the multiplications in y\times 4y-5\times 3x.
