I'm assuming your trying to find the weight of the math book so here it is:

Answer:

4 5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

You'd have to do 18 7/8 - 14 7/9 but you can't subtract them yet because they don't have common denominators. So, you have to multiply the 7/8 by 9 and the 7/9 by 8. Then you would get 63/72 and 56/72. Then you put that into the equation and get, 18 63/72 - 14 53/72. If you subtract those, you get the answer, 4 10/72. Which can be simplified as 4 5/36.
