Each mixed number has to be converted to an improper fraction first. Then convert to common denominators.

= 8 5/6 - 2 4/9
convert to improper fractions

= 53/6 - 22/9
find common denominators; both denominators go into 18

= 159/18 - 44/18
subtract numerators

= 115/18
convert back to mixed number

= 6 7/18

ANSWER: 6 7/18
