explanation: -3/5 and -2/3 need the same denominator so multiply them so that they equal the same. so multiply -3/5 by 3 and then -2/3 by 5. so that equals: -9/15 -(-10/15). The minis a negative cancels out and it becomes plus. so -9 plus 10 is 1 and 15 stays the same. so 1/15.
4. -5.2
explanation: a negative (-2.5) subtracted by a technically smaller negative (-5.2) will equal a positive number
