Answer:

-17/14

Step-by-step explanation:

To subtract fractions, you must have a common denominator. If that is not given, you make it.

You do so buy finding the LCM of denominators:

LCM of 7 and 2 = 14

Now, here you have multiplied the denominators either by 7 or 2. You do the same for the respective numerators:

2x2/14 - 3x7/14 = 4/14 - 21/14.

Now that you have the same denominator, subtract the numerators:

4-21 = - 17

Put it back as a fraction : -17/14

hope this helps.
