Answer:
[tex]-1\frac{7}{9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewriting our equation with parts separated
[tex]2+\frac{8}{9} -4+\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Solving the whole number parts
[tex]2-4=-2[/tex]
Solving the fraction parts
[tex]\frac{8}{9} -\frac{2}{3} =?[/tex]
Find the LCD of 8/9 and 2/3 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.
LCD = 9
[tex]\frac{8}{9} -\frac{6}{9} =\frac{2}{9}[/tex]
Combining the whole and fraction parts
[tex]-2+\frac{2}{9} =-1\frac{7}{9}[/tex]
Hence, -1 7/9 is the correct Answer.
