5/9c − 4/12d = 5/9c −1/3d
5/14c − 2/9d
5/9c + 4/12d = 5/9c +1/3d
5/14c + 2/9d
To simplify 6/7c − 5/9d − 1/2 c + 1/3d, we need to combine like terms.
First, let's combine the terms with c. We have 6/7c − 1/2 c = (12/14)c − (7/14)c = 5/14c.
Next, let's combine the terms with d. We have -5/9d + 1/3d = (-15/27)d + (9/27)d = -6/27d = -2/9d.
So the simplified expression is 5/14c - 2/9d. Therefore, the correct answer is 5/14c - 2/9d.
