Answer:

4/25 would be the answer as;

-1/2 + 1/3 = -0.16666666666

Explanation:

‑1/2+(3/4•4/9) =

-1/2 + (1/3) = -4/25

-0.16

However true answer is 16666666666/100000000000. = 0.1666666666

The rule is when fractions reoccur, we show closest and -4/25 is closer than -1/6

-1/6

Reduce the numbers with the GCF which in this case is 4

3/4•4/9=1/3

-1/2+1/3= -1/6
