See a solution process below:

Explanation:

First, we can rewrite this expression as:

(2x^2)/(3x) - (4x)/(3x) => (2 * x * x)/(3x) - (4color(red)(cancel(color(black)(x))))/(3color(red)(cancel(color(black)(x)))) =>

(2 * color(red)(cancel(color(black)(x))) * x)/(3color(red)(cancel(color(black)(x)))) - 4/3 =>

(2x)/3 - 4/3

Where

3x != 0 or x != 0
