\frac{\left(y+4\right)\left(y+3\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}-\frac{\left(y-2\right)\left(y-1\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of y-1 and y+3 is \left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right). Multiply \frac{y+4}{y-1} times \frac{y+3}{y+3}. Multiply \frac{y-2}{y+3} times \frac{y-1}{y-1}.
\frac{\left(y+4\right)\left(y+3\right)-\left(y-2\right)\left(y-1\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}
Since \frac{\left(y+4\right)\left(y+3\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)} and \frac{\left(y-2\right)\left(y-1\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{y^{2}+3y+4y+12-y^{2}+y+2y-2}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}
Do the multiplications in \left(y+4\right)\left(y+3\right)-\left(y-2\right)\left(y-1\right).
\frac{10y+10}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}
Combine like terms in y^{2}+3y+4y+12-y^{2}+y+2y-2.
\frac{10y+10}{y^{2}+2y-3}
Expand \left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right).
\frac{\left(y+4\right)\left(y+3\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}-\frac{\left(y-2\right)\left(y-1\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}
To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of y-1 and y+3 is \left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right). Multiply \frac{y+4}{y-1} times \frac{y+3}{y+3}. Multiply \frac{y-2}{y+3} times \frac{y-1}{y-1}.
\frac{\left(y+4\right)\left(y+3\right)-\left(y-2\right)\left(y-1\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}
Since \frac{\left(y+4\right)\left(y+3\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)} and \frac{\left(y-2\right)\left(y-1\right)}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
\frac{y^{2}+3y+4y+12-y^{2}+y+2y-2}{\left(y-1\right)\left(y+3\right)}
