See a solution process below:

Substitute:

$(color(blue)(b)color(green)(c)^2 + color(red)(a))/color(green)(c)$ becomes:

$((color(blue)(9) xx color(green)(4)^2) + color(red)(12))/color(green)(4) =>$

$((color(blue)(9) xx color(green)(16)) + color(red)(12))/color(green)(4) =>$

$(144 + color(red)(12))/color(green)(4) =>$

$156/color(green)(4) =>$

$39$
