First, both the numerator and denominator of the fraction have an x and a 2. They cancel out. Then, they elevated the numbers no longer contained in the fraction via y so that they could divide each and everything via y. 8xy^2+12x^2y-(6x^3)/(2xy) = 8xy^2+12x^2y-[(3x^2)/(y)*((2x)/(2x))]=8x... = [8xy^2+12x^2y]*(y/y) - (3x^2)/(y)= (8xy^3)/y + (12x^2y^2)/y - (3x^2)/y = [(8xy^3) + (12x^2y^2) - (3x^2)]/y
