\(a,\dfrac{8}{9}\times\dfrac{7}{5}-\dfrac{7}{9}\times\dfrac{2}{5}+\dfrac{2}{9}\\ =\dfrac{8}{9}\times\left(\dfrac{7}{5}-\dfrac{2}{5}\right)+\dfrac{2}{9}\\ =\dfrac{8}{9}\times\dfrac{5}{5}+\dfrac{2}{9}\\ =\dfrac{8}{9}+\dfrac{2}{9}\\ =\dfrac{10}{9}\)
\(b,\dfrac{5}{9}\times\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{4}{9}\times\dfrac{3}{12}\\ =\dfrac{5}{9}\times\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{4}{9}\times\dfrac{1}{4}\\ =\dfrac{1}{4}\times\left(\dfrac{5}{9}+\dfrac{4}{9}\right)\\ =\dfrac{1}{4}\times\dfrac{9}{9}\\ =\dfrac{1}{4}\)
