Answer

$\frac{20}{9}n$

Work Step by Step

We first apply the distributive property. Then, we simplify the resultant expression: $n+\frac{4}{3}n-\frac{1}{9}n$ =$n(1+\frac{4}{3}-\frac{1}{9})$ =$n(\frac{1(9)+4(3)-1(1)}{9})$ =$n(\frac{9+12-1}{9})$ =$n(\frac{21-1}{9})$ =$n(\frac{20}{9})$ =$\frac{20}{9}n$
