Tomtit [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Hi there!

Your answer is;

17/6 <em><u>OR</u></em> 2 & 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

(-5+1)/6 - (-8+1)/2

First, simplify in parentheses!

-4/6 - -7/2

Next, change the symbol of 7/2 because two negatives make a positive!

-4/6 +7/2

Next, change the denominators so they both have the same

-4/6 + 7/2

× 3/3

-4/6 + 21/6

Simplify!

17/6

<u>OR</u>

2 & 5/6

Hope this helps
