Answer:


-1(7)/(9)

Explanation:

Rewriting our equation with parts separated


2+(8)/(9) -4+(2)/(3)

Solving the whole number parts


2-4=-2

Solving the fraction parts


(8)/(9) -(2)/(3) =?

Find the LCD of 8/9 and 2/3 and rewrite to solve with the equivalent fractions.

LCD = 9


(8)/(9) -(6)/(9) =(2)/(9)

Combining the whole and fraction parts


-2+(2)/(9) =-1(7)/(9)

Hence, -1 7/9 is the correct Answer.
