so first, simplify the signs so they don’t confuse you,
-5/6 - 17/18 + 2/9 (Since there are two negatives near the end, and their tecxhnically being mulitplied, -2/9*-1 (I added 1 for place holder) and when you multiply a negatives by a negative, you get a positive.
So find the lcm of the denominators which is 18 in this case
