    correction:

    ln(x)=t
    ln(y)=u

    1.
    ln(ex/y)-ln(y/(ex)..........use quotient rule

    ln(ex)/ln(y)-ln(y)/ln(ex).......use product rule

    (ln(e)+ln(x))/ln(y)-ln(y)/(ln(e)+ln(x))............ln(e)=1

    (1+ln(x))/ln(y)-ln(y)/(1+ln(x))...........substitute given ln(x)=t and
    ln(y)=u

    (1+t)/u-u/(1+t)

    (t^2 + 2 t - u^2 + 1)/((t + 1) u)


    2.
    ((ln(x))^3-ln(x^4))/((ln(x/e^2))*ln(xe^2))

    =(t^3-4ln(x))/((ln(x)-2ln(e))*(ln(x)+2ln(e))).........substitte given ln(x)=t and ln(y)=u

    =(t^3-4t)/((t-2*1)*(t+2*1))

    =(t(t^2-4))/((t-2)*(t+2))

    =(t(t-2)(t+2))/((t-2)*(t+2)).......simplify

    =t

    I'm surprised to know that I got problem 1 wrong.
    Problem 2 is tricky.
