Hey there!

The ratio 6:18 describes Joe's fish tank, certainly. But how?

Note that this ratio can be written as 6 to 18, 6/18, and 6 out of 18.

This ratio can show this: For every 6 goldfish in Joe's tank, there are 12 snails.

Great question!

Hope I helped, please feel free to comment below should you have any questions/comments/concerns!

Answer:

$-\frac{21}{10}$ or $-2.1$ (they're the same)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify: $-\frac{9}{6} + (-\frac{3}{5}) = -\frac{9}{6} - \frac{3}{5}$
Find a common denominator. The LCM of 6 and 5 is 30, so multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same thing: 6 × 5 = 30, -9 × 5 = -45, 5 × 6 = 30, 3 × 6 = 18
Write the new fractions: $-\frac{45}{30} - \frac{18}{30}$
Subtract: -45/30 - 18/30 = $-\frac{63}{30} = -\frac{21}{10}$
