a) $$13\frac{8}{9}-4$$
$$13\frac{8}{9}-4 = 9\frac{8}{9}$$
б) $$17\frac{5}{14} - 5\frac{3}{14}$$
$$17\frac{5}{14} - 5\frac{3}{14} = (17-5)+\frac{5-3}{14} = 12+\frac{2}{14} = 12\frac{2}{14} = 12\frac{1}{7}$$
в) $$9\frac{5}{7} - 3\frac{6}{7}$$
$$9\frac{5}{7} - 3\frac{6}{7} = 8\frac{12}{7} - 3\frac{6}{7} = (8-3) + \frac{12-6}{7} = 5 + \frac{6}{7} = 5\frac{6}{7}$$
г) $$100 - 20\frac{3}{14}$$
$$100 - 20\frac{3}{14} = 99\frac{14}{14} - 20\frac{3}{14} = (99-20) + \frac{14-3}{14} = 79 + \frac{11}{14} = 79\frac{11}{14}$$
Ответ: a) $$9\frac{8}{9}$$; б) $$12\frac{1}{7}$$; в) $$5\frac{6}{7}$$; г) $$79\frac{11}{14}$$.
