Take it piece by piece.
Step 1 - The first part is (1/x)-(2/3). You have to get common denominators. Multiply each term by (3x)/(3x). This will give you the result of (3-2x)/(3x).
Step 2 - Divide that by (9-6x) which actually factors to (3)(3-2x). Make that portion a fraction [3(3-2x)]/1. Now you're dividing a fraction by a fraction. That's "bad", so you multiply by the reciprocal. [(3-2x)/(3x)]*[1/(3(3-2x))]. The (3-2x) cancels. This gives the result of 1/(9x).
Step 3 - Divide this by (9x2+12x). Again, make the denominator a fraction, and then multiply by the reciprocal. This will give a final result of 1/(81x3+108x2). Or, if you want those factored, you would have 1/[27x2(3x+4)]
