The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of subtracting \( \frac{5}{9} \) from \( \frac{19}{9} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the fractions We have two fractions: - The first fraction is \( \frac{19}{9} \). - The second fraction is \( \frac{5}{9} \). ### Step 2: Set up the subtraction We need to subtract \( \frac{5}{9} \) from \( \frac{19}{9} \): \[ \frac{19}{9} - \frac{5}{9} \] ### Step 3: Find a common denominator Since both fractions have the same denominator (9), we can directly subtract the numerators without needing to find a new common denominator. ### Step 4: Subtract the numerators Now we subtract the numerators: \[ 19 - 5 = 14 \] ### Step 5: Write the result as a fraction Now we place the result over the common denominator: \[ \frac{14}{9} \] ### Final Answer The result of subtracting \( \frac{5}{9} \) from \( \frac{19}{9} \) is: \[ \frac{14}{9} \] ---
