Its not a negative number but a positive number
Student B is wrong , student A is correct in simplifying the expression .
Expression B must be simplified to cot θ .
Formulas to be used are :
1 -
θ =
θ
1 -
θ =
θ .
Since , location of error is step 3 , we will start from there
[ ( 1 -
θ ) / sin θ ] / cos θ = [ ( 1 -
θ ) / sin θ ] * [ 1 / cos θ ]
= ( 1 -
θ ) / ( sin θ * cos θ )
=
θ / ( sin θ * cos θ )
= cot θ .

Since , the question is incomplete we assume it to be :
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 
Let's changed that mixed number to an improper fraction. Now we get:

Let's find out least common denominator. This one is easy, the LCD is 8. Now that we know the LCD, let's convert both our fractions:

We can use
because it is equal to
. Now, all we need to do is subtract the numerators:

Okayyyyy i will, can i have crown please??
