Let's solve each expression step by step.

1. For the first expression:
\(-3 - 12\)

\[
-3 - 12 = -15
\]

2. For the second expression:
\(2 - (-3)\)

This is equivalent to \(2 + 3\):

\[
2 + 3 = 5
\]

Now, if you want to express these results as fractions:

1. \(-15\) can be written as \(-\frac{15}{1}\).
2. \(5\) can be written as \(\frac{5}{1}\).

So, the expressions as fractions are:
- First expression: \(-\frac{15}{1}\)
- Second expression: \(\frac{5}{1}\)

To solve the expression \(-3 - \frac{12}{2} - (-3)\), we need to follow the order of operations.

1. **Calculate the division**:
\(\frac{12}{2} = 6\)

Now, the expression simplifies to:
\(-3 - 6 - (-3)\)

2. **Simplify the expression**:
- First, evaluate the subtraction of the negative:
\(-(-3) = +3\)

Now, the expression becomes:
\(-3 - 6 + 3\)

3. **Perform the operations from left to right**:
- First, calculate \(-3 - 6\):
\(-3 - 6 = -9\)

- Then, add \(3\):
\(-9 + 3 = -6\)

Thus, the final result is \(-6\).

If you want to express this result as a fraction, \(-6\) can be written as:
\[
-\frac{6}{1}
\]

So the final answer is \(-\frac{6}{1}\).
