To solve $ 17 \frac{4}{9} + \frac{5}{9} - 8 - 10 $, we can first convert everything to fractions for easier calculation. 1. Convert $ 17 \frac{4}{9} $ to an improper fraction: $$ 17 \frac{4}{9} = \frac{17 \times 9 + 4}{9} = \frac{153 + 4}{9} = \frac{157}{9} $$ 2. Rewrite $ 8 $ and $ 10 $ as fractions with a denominator of $ 9 $: $$ 8 = \frac{8 \times 9}{9} = \frac{72}{9} $$ $$ 10 = \frac{10 \times 9}{9} = \frac{90}{9} $$ 3. Substitute everything back into the expression: $$ \frac{157}{9} + \frac{5}{9} - \frac{72}{9} - \frac{90}{9} $$ 4. Combine the fractions: $$ \frac{157 + 5 - 72 - 90}{9} = \frac{157 + 5 - 162}{9} = \frac{162 - 162}{9} = \frac{0}{9} = 0 $$ Thus, the answer is $ \boxed{0} $.
