\frac{4x\left(x+4\right)}{\left(x+4\right)\left(x+9\right)}-\frac{\left(x+1\right)\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x+4\right)\left(x+9\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x+9 and x+4 is \left(x+4\right)\left(x+9\right). Multiply \frac{4x}{x+9} times \frac{x+4}{x+4}. Multiply \frac{x+1}{x+4} times \frac{x+9}{x+9}.
\frac{4x\left(x+4\right)-\left(x+1\right)\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x+4\right)\left(x+9\right)}
Since \frac{4x\left(x+4\right)}{\left(x+4\right)\left(x+9\right)} and \frac{\left(x+1\right)\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x+4\right)\left(x+9\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{4x^{2}+16x-x^{2}-9x-x-9}{\left(x+4\right)\left(x+9\right)}
Do the multiplications in 4x\left(x+4\right)-\left(x+1\right)\left(x+9\right).
