Answer:


(1)/(2)

Explanation:

Since the denominators are the same, we can just subtract 4 from 9 to get 5

The denominators should not be subtracted... they will remain the same

Now we take the result from 9-4 which equals 5

And we put that back into the equation so we have


(5)/(10)

This is not in simplest form. In order to get simplest form. Divide each number by two... so now we have


(1)/(2)

Which is the answer
