\frac{x}{2\left(x+3\right)}-\frac{5x}{x+3}
Factor 2x+6.
\frac{x}{2\left(x+3\right)}-\frac{2\times 5x}{2\left(x+3\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of 2\left(x+3\right) and x+3 is 2\left(x+3\right). Multiply \frac{5x}{x+3} times \frac{2}{2}.
\frac{x-2\times 5x}{2\left(x+3\right)}
Since \frac{x}{2\left(x+3\right)} and \frac{2\times 5x}{2\left(x+3\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{x-10x}{2\left(x+3\right)}
Do the multiplications in x-2\times 5x.
\frac{-9x}{2\left(x+3\right)}
Combine like terms in x-10x.
\frac{-9x}{2x+6}
Expand 2\left(x+3\right).
