Answer:

-7/8

Explanation:

2 18/24 -(- 1 12/24) + (-20/24) -(-9/24) - (+ 4 16/24)

2 18/24 + 1 12/24 - 20/24 + 9/24 - 4 16/24

4 6/24 - 20/24 + 9/24 - 4 16/24

3 10/24 + 9/24 - 4 16/24

3 19/24 - 4 16/24

- 21/24

-7/8

Answer: -7/8

Explanation:

you need to find a common denominator for all of them

in this case it would be 24

2 18/24 -(- 1 12/24) + (-20/24) -(-9/24) - (+ 4 16/24)

2 18/24 + 1 12/24 - 20/24 + 9/24 - 4 16/24

4 6/24 - 20/24 + 9/24 - 4 16/24

3 10/24 + 9/24 - 4 16/24

3 19/24 - 4 16/24

- 21/24

-7/8
