how are frame rates determined in games, can they be altered? Are they something that can be fixed in a patch if a game has a low framerate or framerate issues? How hard Is it to fix?

Frame rate is limited by how long it takes the game to render the next frame. The bottleneck could be lack of resources (gpu/cpu/memory) or could just be a bug or lack of optimization. Varies drastically between games. Game settings can obviously impact frame rate, as generally, lower quality means faster. That said, it depends on the game and how it’s implemented.
Frame rate could also be artificially limited, or could be due to a hardware or driver issue on your end. Update your video drivers. Reboot. Try different settings. Wait for a patch. All those could help, or have no effect.
