There are many ways to do this depending on the property you have to use:
If you use the distributive property, you need to distribute 3/4 to -10 and 2/5. Distribute means you will multiply it so your resulting equation will be this:

Before you can add, you need to first make them like terms because you cannot add unlike fractions. Get the LCD and form your new equation:

Now you can just add them together to get:

and then simplify your fraction:

or -
The whole fraction becomes negative because when you divide integers and of them is negative, the final answer will be negative.
Answer:
Let x represents the Sara eat pancake and y represents the Phil eat the pancake.
As per the statement:
Phil ate three less than twice as many pancakes as Sara.
"Twice as many pancake as Sara" means 2x
"three less than twice as many pancakes as Sara" means 2x -3
⇒
.....[1]
It is also given that together they combined to eat 15 pancakes.
⇒
.....[2]
Substitute equation [1] into [2] we get;

Combine like terms;
3x-3 =15
Add 3 to both sides we get;
3x = 18
Divide both sides by 3 we get;
x = 6
Substitute the value of x in [1] we get;
y = 2(6)-3 = 12-3 =9
y = 9
Therefore, the pancakes did each eat are;
Sara eat pancake = 6 and Phil eat pancake = 9

Answer:
1. The negative sign on an exponent means the reciprocal. A negative exponent tells how many times to divide a base number.
2. A positive tells how many times to multiply a base number.
