I need some help,
here are the problems:
i am subtracting these two fractions
(9b^2 - b + 4 / 3b - 2) - (2b^2 + b - 8 / 3b - 2)
The both look like fractions
Here is the second one i need help with
(11f / (2f + 3)(f - 4)) / (f + 6 / 2f - 3)
Some help would be great, thanks!

(9b^2 - b + 4 / 3b - 2) - (2b^2 + b - 8 / 3b - 2) For this first one the denominators are the same so you can just subtract the numerators.
so (9b^2-b+4-2b^2-b+8)/(3b-2)=
rearrange to see easier
(9b^2-2b^2-b-b+4+8)/(3b-2)=
(7b^2-2b+12)/(3b-2)<<< 1st answer
(11f / (2f + 3)(f - 4)) / (f + 6 / 2f - 3) In this one you have to multiply the first two and then do your division.
so (11f(f-4))/(2f+3)/(f+6/2f-3)=
[(11f^2-44f)/(2f+3)]/(f+6/2f-3)
now you two fractions, one divided by the other. So you multiply the first by the reciprocal of the other (the bottom one).
(11f^2-44f)(2f-3)/(2f+3)(f+6)=
distribute and simplify
(22f^3-88f^2-33f^2+132f)/
(2f^2+3f+12f+18)=
(22f^3-121f^2+132f)/(2f^2+15f+18)<<< 2nd answer
I hope this helps. E-mail if you have questions.
