But as it's written according to "pemdas" it means

expr%283x%2F5%29%28x%2By%29+-+expr%282y%2F3%29%28x%2By%29

Then we can factor out (x+y)

%28x%2By%29%283x%2F5-2y%2F3%29

%28x%2By%29%28expr%283x%2F5%29expr%283%2F3%29-expr%282y%2F3%29expr%285%2F5%29%29



%28%28x%2By%29%289x-10y%29%29%2F15%29

Or if you prefer

expr%281%2F15%29%28x%2By%29%289x-10y%29
