Answer:

Explanation:

Ok, well the first thing you need to do is make -4/13 have the same numerator as 9/26. Thankfully, 26 is a multiple of 13, so that step is easy:

-4/13 -> -8/26

Then you can add them together with ease.

9/26 + -8/26 = 1/26

Adding a negative number to anything is the same thing as subtracting.
