Write your answer in simplest form.

To solve the expression 4/9 - 3, we need to find a common denominator. The denominator of 4/9 is already 9, so we can leave it as is. To make 3 have a denominator of 9, we multiply it by 9/9, which is equivalent to 1.

So, 4/9 - 3 can be rewritten as (4/9) - (3/1) = (4/9) - (27/9).
Now that both fractions have the same denominator, we subtract the numerators:
(4 - 27)/9 = -23/9.
Therefore, 4/9 - 3 in simplest form is -23/9.

To simplify the expression (-4/3)(-9), you can multiply the numerators and denominators of the fractions together:

(-4/3)(-9) = (-4 * -9) / (3) = 36/3

Next, you can simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator by the denominator:

36/3 = 12

So, the simplified form of (-4/3)(-9) is 12.
