\frac{3x}{x-3}-\frac{12x-18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}
Factor x^{2}-6x+9.
\frac{3x\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}-\frac{12x-18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x-3 and \left(x-3\right)^{2} is \left(x-3\right)^{2}. Multiply \frac{3x}{x-3} times \frac{x-3}{x-3}.
\frac{3x\left(x-3\right)-\left(12x-18\right)}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}
Since \frac{3x\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}} and \frac{12x-18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{3x^{2}-9x-12x+18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}
Do the multiplications in 3x\left(x-3\right)-\left(12x-18\right).
\frac{3x^{2}-21x+18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}
Combine like terms in 3x^{2}-9x-12x+18.
\frac{3x^{2}-21x+18}{x^{2}-6x+9}
Expand \left(x-3\right)^{2}.
\frac{3x}{x-3}-\frac{12x-18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}

To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x-3 and \left(x-3\right)^{2} is \left(x-3\right)^{2}. Multiply \frac{3x}{x-3} times \frac{x-3}{x-3}.
\frac{3x\left(x-3\right)-\left(12x-18\right)}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}
Since \frac{3x\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}} and \frac{12x-18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{3x^{2}-9x-12x+18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}
Do the multiplications in 3x\left(x-3\right)-\left(12x-18\right).
\frac{3x^{2}-21x+18}{\left(x-3\right)^{2}}
Combine like terms in 3x^{2}-9x-12x+18.
\frac{3x^{2}-21x+18}{x^{2}-6x+9}
Expand \left(x-3\right)^{2}.
