\[1 \frac{ 1 }{ 45 }\]

Here is the answer: \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-9}{5}}\) \(\sf\large-\) \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{7}{-9}}\) \(\sf\large\ =\) \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}\frac{-46}{45}}\) Here is the step by step solution: Step 1: The Common Denominator of \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-9}{5}}\) and \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{7}{-9}}\) is 45 so we must multiply \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-9}{5}}\) by 9 and \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{7}{-9}}\) by 5 \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-9x9}{5x9}}\) \(\sf\large-\) \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{7x5}{-9x5}}\) \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-81}{45}}\) \(\sf\large-\) \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-35}{45}}\) Step 2: Subtract -81 and -35 \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-81 ~- ~-35}{45}}\) It equals \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-46}{45}}\) and that is your final answer

ohh...so mine was wrong -.- idk how it was wrong ><

sammixboo (sammixboo):

No no if it was \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{46}{45}}\) it would be \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{1\frac{1}{45}}\) but it is \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{-46}{45}}\) not \(\sf\LARGE\color{magenta}{\frac{46}{45}}\)
