Given the expression:


(4)/(9)(2n-3)

to find an equivalent expression, we start by applying the distributive property of real numbers:


(4)/(9)(2n-3)=(4)/(9)\cdot2n-(4)/(9)\cdot3

Now we multiply each term to get the following:


(4)/(9)\cdot2n-(4)/(9)\cdot3=(8)/(9)n-(12)/(9)=(8)/(9)n-(4)/(3)=(8)/(9)n-1(1)/(3)

therefore, the equivalent expression is 8/9n-1 1/3
