Answer 1

Answer:

-5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

(518×11)−(56×33)=?

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

518−1518=?

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.

Then:

5−1518=−1018

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 10 and 18 using

GCF(10,18) = 2

−10÷218÷2=−59

Therefore:

518−56=−59
