Question

Evaluate -2/3 + 5/6

Answer 1

Answer: .16 Well, we can just call this a simple negative two divided by three plus 5 divided by 6. Using the *cough order of *cough *cough operations, or GEMA, we can see that we can separate this expression into two.

-2/3+5/6

(-2/3) + (5/6)

By simplifying each side of the expression, we will receive:

-.6 + .83 ["Negative point six repeating plus point 8, 3 repeating"]

This adds up to .16, or point 1, six repeating.
