Answer

See example below.

Work Step by Step

Let $f(x)=e^{x},\quad g(x)=1$ $\displaystyle \int f(x)dx=\Leftarrow e^{x}+C$ $\displaystyle \int g(x)dx=x+D$ $\displaystyle \frac{\int f(x)dx}{\int g(x)dx}=\frac{e^{x}+C}{x+D}$ has a linear term in the denominator. But, $\displaystyle \int\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}dx=\int e^{x}dx=e^{x}+E$, which does not have a linear term in the denominator. So, in general, $\displaystyle \int\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}dx\neq\frac{\int f(x)dx}{\int g(x)dx}$
