- 1.3 is the number we get when we subtract the sum of -5/6 and -1 3/5 from the sum of 2 2/3 and -6 2/5. This can be obtained by finding sum separately and then subtracting them.
<h3>What is the required number:</h3>
Here in the question it is given that,
subtract the sum of -5/6 and -1 3/5 from the sum of 2 2/3 and -6 2/5
By separating them as two parts
⇒ sum of -5/6 and -1 3/5
- 5/6 + - 1 3/5 = - 5/6 + - 8/5 (∵ a b/c = (ac+b)/c(5+3)/5 = 8/5)
= (- 25 - 48)/30 (LCM = 30)
= - 73/30
⇒ sum of 2 2/3 and -6 2/5
2 2/3 + -6 2/5 = 8/3 + -32/5
= (40 - 96)/15 (LCM = 15)
= - 56/15
subtract the sum of -5/6 and -1 3/5 from the sum of 2 2/3 and -6 2/5
= (sum of 2 2/3 and -6 2/5) - (sum of -5/6 and -1 3/5)
= (- 56/15) - (- 73/30 )
= - 56/15 + 73/30
= - 112/30 + 73/30 (LCM = 30)
= - 39/30
= - 13/10
= - 1.3
Hence - 1.3 is the number we get when we subtract the sum of -5/6 and -1 3/5 from the sum of 2 2/3 and -6 2/5.
