Answer:

  1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the proportion of time the third person spends on the project. You want ...

  1/2 + 1/3 + x = 1 . . . . full-time equivalents

  5/6 + x = 1 . . . . simplify

  x = 1/6 . . . . . . . subtract 5/6

The third person should budget 1/6 of their time to the project.

Use PEMDAS.

Parenthesis first.

(-15)-(-12)+3-(-9)

Next multiply,

(-15)+12+3+9 (two negatives get you a positive)

Finally, add and subtract:
-15+24=9

You get 9 as your answer.

Hope this helps!
