Who started the problem correctly? The problem form is (-5) - (-1 3/4).

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Shane started the problem correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given problem (-5) - (-1 3/4).

Mariah started the problem as (-5) + 1 - 3/4

Shane started the problem as (-5) + 1 + 3/4

We need to find who started the problem correctly.

The problem should be started by converting the mixed fraction into improper fraction i,e

$-5-(-1\frac{3}{4})\\=-5-(-1-\frac{3}{4} )\\=-5-(-\frac{7}{4})$

Now we will solve bracket by multiplying -1 with term inside the bracket i.e

$=-5+\frac{7}{4}$

$= \frac{-13}{4}$

Let's compare both the procedures now:

Mariah:

$(-5) + 1 - \frac{3}{4}$

$=(-5) - \frac{1}{4}$

$=\frac{-21}{4}$

Therefore, Mariah did not start the problem correctly.

Shane:

$(-5) + 1 + \frac{3}{4}$

$= -5 + \frac{7}{4}$

$= \frac{-13}{4}$

Therefore, Shane started the problem correctly.
