Subtract:
$\frac{5}{9}\text{ from }\frac{-2}{3}$
$\frac{5}{9}\text{ from }\frac{-2}{3}$
✓
Answer
$\frac{5}{9}\text{ from }\frac{-2}{3}$LCM of 9 and 3 = 9
$\therefore\frac{-2}{3}=\frac{-2\times3}{3\times3}=\frac{-6}{9}$
$\frac{-2}{5}-\frac{5}{9}=\frac{-6}{9}-\frac{5}{9}$
$=\frac{-6-5}{9}=\frac{-11}{9}$
$\therefore\frac{-2}{3}=\frac{-2\times3}{3\times3}=\frac{-6}{9}$
$\frac{-2}{5}-\frac{5}{9}=\frac{-6}{9}-\frac{5}{9}$
$=\frac{-6-5}{9}=\frac{-11}{9}$
