Answer:

1/6a-1/6, a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! I can definitely explain :)

-2/3a+5/6a-1/6

Multiply the two terms (the first two), to have common denominators!

The common lowest (easiest to deal with) denominator is 18. So, multiply the first term (-2/3a) by 6/6 and the second term (5/6a) by 3/3!

-12/18a+15/18a-1/6

Now, add those together!

3/18a-1/6

Now simplify!

1/6a-1/6

If you want, you can solve for a!

1/6a=1/6

a=1

Hope this helps! Please mark brainliest :)
