So, we first need to find the common denominator.

2 x 9 = 18 9 x 2 = 18

18.

8 x 2 = 16/18

9 x 1 = 9/18

16 - 9 = 7

We do not need to simplify since you can't simplify that fraction.

So, your answer is 7/18

Glad I could help, and good luck!

You need to find the common denominator of the two, and with that, they can both be put in eighteenths. The new equation is 16/18-9/18, which equals 7/18, and cannot be simplified further.
