Question

5/3+(-7/6) reduce to simplest form

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{5}{3} + (-\frac{7}{6})$ reduced to the simplest form is $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5}{3} + (-\frac{7}{6})$

First, rearrange the fractions so that they have the same denominator. We do this by finding the common multiple of 3 and 6 and multiplying the numerators by the number of times it takes to get to the denominator when multiplying.

$\frac{10}{6}+(- \frac{7}{6} )$

Now, since 7/6 is negative, then it would just be like subtracting 7/6 from 10/6.

$\frac{10}{6} -\frac{7}{6} = \frac{3}{6}$

Now, all we have to do is reduce the fraction 3/6.

$\frac{3}{6}= \frac{1}{2}$

So, your final answer would be $\frac{1}{2}$
