Question

Simply (2)/(3)a+6-(3)/(5)a-1

Answer 1

Answer:

That simplifies to $\frac{1}{15}a + 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify:

$\frac{2}{3}a + 6 - \frac{3}{5}a - 1\\\\\frac{10}{15}a - \frac{9}{15}a + 6 - 1\\\\\frac{1}{15}a + 5$

If you want to express that as a single fraction, you can do so by multiplying the five by 15/15, and summing the numerators.  That gives you:

$\frac{a + 75}{15}$
