Sure! Let’s simplify the expression step by step in the same way as your example.

Given expression: \[ \text{Simplify: } \frac{-3x^4 + 21x^3 - 12x^2}{3x} \]

We can break this down into individual fractions: \[ \frac{-3x^4}{3x} + \frac{21x^3}{3x} - \frac{12x^2}{3x} \]

Now, simplifying each fraction individually: \[ \frac{-3x^4}{3x} = -x^{4-1} = -x^3 \] \[ \frac{21x^3}{3x} = 7x^{3-1} = 7x^2 \] \[ \frac{-12x^2}{3x} = -4x^{2-1} = -4x \]

Now we combine the simplified terms: \[ -x^3 + 7x^2 - 4x \]

Therefore, the simplified expression is: \[ \boxed{-x^3 + 7x^2 - 4x} \]
