The answer is 5 5/6 simplified to the max.

rewrite the equation with separated parts

-3 1/2 - 2 1/3

-3 - 2 = -5

-1/2 - 1/3? u need to find the LEAST common denominator

-3/6 - 2/6 = -5/6

how did I get 6?

Rewriting input as fractions if necessary:
1/2, 1/3

For the denominators (2, 3) the least common multiple (LCM) is 6.

Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) is 6.

Now lastly combine them total and its -5 - 5/6 = -5 5/6.

Given a line segment with endpoints A(16, 8) and B(1, 3) what are the coordinates of the
blondinia [14]

Answer:

The line segment partitioned two-fifths from A to B is (10,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

First point from A to B is (16,8)

than find the difference between A to B i.e B - A

(1,3)-(16,8) = (-15,-5)

To measure the (2/5) difference we will multiply (-15,-5) with  (2/5) which is equal to (-6,-2)

Now Add the difference to the first coordinate (point A) gives

Point of division = (16,8)+(-6,-2)

Point of division = (16-6, 8-2)

Point of division = (10,6)
