Answer:

[tex]\frac{10}{21}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given values into the expression

- 4c - a

= - 4 × - [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{8}{7}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ( the LCM of 7 and 3 is 21 ) , then

= [tex]\frac{8(3)}{7(3)}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{2(7)}{3(7)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{24}{21}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{14}{21}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{24-14}{21}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{10}{21}[/tex]
