\bf \cfrac{~~(4t^2-16)/(8)~~}{(t-2)/(6)}\implies \cfrac{4(t^2-4)}{8}\cdot\cfrac{6}{t-2}\implies \cfrac{4\stackrel{\stackrel{difference}{of~squares}}{(t^2-2^2)}}{\underset{4}{~~\begin{matrix} 8 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}}\cdot\cfrac{\stackrel{3}{\begin{matrix} 6 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}}~~}{t-2}


\bf \cfrac{\begin{matrix} 4 (t-2) \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~(t+2)}{~~\begin{matrix} 4 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}\cdot \cfrac{3}{~~\begin{matrix} t-2 \\[-0.7em]\cline{1-1}\\[-5pt]\end{matrix}~~}\implies 3(t+2)
