\frac{9\left(x-1\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)}-\frac{7\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of \left(x+9\right)\left(x+3\right) and \left(x+3\right)\left(x-1\right) is \left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right). Multiply \frac{9}{\left(x+9\right)\left(x+3\right)} times \frac{x-1}{x-1}. Multiply \frac{7}{\left(x+3\right)\left(x-1\right)} times \frac{x+9}{x+9}.
\frac{9\left(x-1\right)-7\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)}
Since \frac{9\left(x-1\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)} and \frac{7\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

\frac{9\left(x-1\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)}-\frac{7\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of \left(x+9\right)\left(x+3\right) and \left(x+3\right)\left(x-1\right) is \left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right). Multiply \frac{9}{\left(x+9\right)\left(x+3\right)} times \frac{x-1}{x-1}. Multiply \frac{7}{\left(x+3\right)\left(x-1\right)} times \frac{x+9}{x+9}.
\frac{9\left(x-1\right)-7\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)}
Since \frac{9\left(x-1\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)} and \frac{7\left(x+9\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+3\right)\left(x+9\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
