Subtract and simplify, if possible: 1-v/v-6 - 3v-2/6-v
---
Modify the 2nd fraction to get:
= (1-v)/(v-6) + (3v-2)/(v-6)
----
Combine the numerators over the common denominator
= [1-v+3v-2]/(v-6)
----
Simplify to get
= (2v-1)/(v-6)
=======================

Divide: 8/x divided by 64/x
---
Invert and multiply to get:
(8/x)*(x/64)
= 1/8
