please help a girl out

Answer 1

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

the reasoning behind this is because it is negative and negative so negative plus negative equal still negative and 5+7 = 12 so just add that denominator under it and then you get 12/12 which can be turned into 1 so then -1-1= -2

Answer 2

7/12 - 1 5/12 = 7-5 = 2
= 1 2/12 ( the whole came from 1 5/12 )
