Question

WILL GIVE BRAINLET !! 2/6 + - 5/12 ( show how u get the answer )

Answer 1

Answer:

$-\frac{1}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

$\frac{2}{6}-\frac{5}{12}$

To subtract, we want to have a common denominator. So, let's find a common denominator by using the LCM.

The LCM of 6 and 12 is 12.

Since the second term is already 12, let's multiply the first term by 2 to get its denominator to be 12:

$=(\frac{2}{2})\frac{2}{6}-\frac{5}{12}$

Multiply:

$=\frac{4}{12}-\frac{5}{12}$

Now, we can combine the fractions:

$=\frac{4-5}{12}$

Subtract:

$=\frac{-1}{12}$

And we are done!

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{-1}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{(2*12)+(-5*6)}{6*12}$ =

$\frac{-6}{72}$ =

$\frac{-6}{72}$ ÷ both by 6

$\frac{-1}{12}$

hope this helps
