Hi!
When you add a negative number, you really just subtract it. So let's solve this.
Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
Solve
434 - 351 = 83
The sign of this fraction is positive
Hope this helps! :)

$864 all you had to do was multiply 216 by 4 and 380 by 4 to get 1520 and 656 subtract that to get 864
The easiest way to think about this is to give all of the numbers common denominators:
1 can be written as 6/6
0 can be written as 0/6
Now we can see that 5/6 is only 1/6 away from 1, while it is 5/6 away from 0.
So, 5/6 is closer to 1!
