Well to find this answer, we will have to find a common denominator for each fraction so it will be easier to subtract. 9 is a common denominator for both numbers since both denominators, 9 and 3, can go into 9. We don't have to change 2/9, but we will have to change 1/3. Multiply 1 and 3 by 3 to get our new fraction 3/9. 2/9-3/9= -1/9 So our answer would be - 1/9. Hope I helped!
