$$\frac{ 6 }{ 7 } - \frac{ 2 }{ 3 }$$

$\frac{4}{21}\approx 0.19047619$

Least common multiple of $7$ and $3$ is $21$. Convert $\frac{6}{7}$ and $\frac{2}{3}$ to fractions with denominator $21$.

$$\frac{18}{21}-\frac{14}{21}$$

Since $\frac{18}{21}$ and $\frac{14}{21}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{18-14}{21}$$

Subtract $14$ from $18$ to get $4$.

$$\frac{4}{21}$$

$\frac{2 ^ {2}}{3 \cdot 7} = 0.19047619047619047$
