Answer 2

Answer:

$-\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-\frac{1}{9} + (-\frac{5}{9} )$

Since you have two negative fractions you add them together and put a negative sign in front of the fraction.

1+5=6                                  so you have

$-\frac{6}{9}$                     Now you have to simplify 6 and 9 are both divisible by 3 so                             divide  both by 3 separately and then put it back in fraction form

-6÷3=-2

9÷3=3                    back in fraction form

$-\frac{2}{3}$                      You can't simplify any more so $-\frac{2}{3}$ is your answer
