To simplify this expression, we'll start by converting all the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
17/18 = 1.9444413/14 = 1.928575/8 = 0.62519/20 = 0.9525/78 = 0.320511/26 = 0.03846
Now, we can rewrite the expression with the improper fractions:
(1.94444 - 1.92857 - 0.625 ÷ 0.95) ÷ (0.32051 - 0.03846)
Next, we'll perform the operations inside the parentheses:
(0.01687 - 0.625 ÷ 0.95) ÷ (0.32051 - 0.03846)(0.01687 - 0.65789) ÷ (0.28205)(-0.64102) ÷ (0.28205)-2.27136
Therefore, the simplified result is -2.27136.
