To subtract fractions, you need to obtain a common denominator. We can achieve this, in this case, by multiplying:

[tex](\frac{4}{4} * \frac{22}{13}) - (\frac{13}{13}*\frac{21}{4})[/tex]

Simplify this:

[tex]\frac{88}{52} - \frac{286}{52}[/tex]

Now we have common denominators, so we can easily just subtract the numerators, and we have the answer:

[tex]-\frac{198}{52}[/tex]

Notice that this is divisible by 2:

[tex]-\frac{99}{26}[/tex]

That's your answer!
