%283%2B2y%5E%22%22%29%2F%284y%5E3%2B6y%5E2%29%22%22=%22%22

factor out 2y2 on the bottom:

%283%2B2y%5E%22%22%29%2F%282y%5E2%282y%2B3%29%29%22%22=%22%22

Since 3+2y and 2y+3 are the same thing,
they cancel:

%28%22%22%5E%22%22%5E1cross%283%2B2y%5E%22%22%29%29%2F%282y%5E2%28cross%282y%2B3%29%29%29%22%22=%22%22

1%2F%282y%5E2%29
