Solution
Given, `-2 1/9 - 6`
If verbs in chinchle join the verb:
`(- 19)/9 - 6`
Now LCM of the denominator of the latter parameter = 9 × 1 = 9
= `(- 19 - (6 xx 9))/9`
= `(- 19 - 54)/9`
= `(- 73)/9`
The numerator and denominator of the obtained rational number have no other multiple than 1
Hence, `(- 73)/9`
