To solve this expression, we need to calculate each division separately and then subtract the results.
First, let's calculate 2:9(0.45 - 2.7):2/9 * (-2.25) = -0.5
Next, let's calculate 2:17(0.51 - 3.4):2/17 * (-2.89) = -0.34
Finally, subtract the two results:-0.5 -(-0.34) = -0.16
Therefore, 2:9(0.45 - 2.7) - 2:17(0.51 - 3.4) = -0.16.
