\(\dfrac{-5}{23}\cdot\dfrac{17}{26}+\dfrac{5}{23}\cdot\dfrac{9}{-29}\)
= \(\dfrac{5}{23}\cdot\dfrac{-17}{26}+\dfrac{5}{23}\cdot\dfrac{-9}{29}\)
= \(\dfrac{5}{23}\left(\dfrac{-17}{26}+\dfrac{-9}{26}\right)\)
= \(\dfrac{5}{23}\cdot\left(-1\right)=\dfrac{-5}{23}\)
\(\dfrac{-5}{23}.\dfrac{17}{26}+\dfrac{5}{23}.\dfrac{9}{-26}=\dfrac{-5}{23}.\left(\dfrac{17}{26}+\dfrac{9}{26}\right)\)
\(=\dfrac{-5}{23}.\left(\dfrac{17+9}{26}\right)=\dfrac{-5}{23}.\dfrac{26}{26}\)
\(=\dfrac{-5}{23}.1=\dfrac{-5}{23}\)
