Answer 2

Using improper fractions, the solution for the expression is:

$-\frac{49}{12}$

-----------------------

The expression is given by:

$-2\frac{1}{3} + (-1\frac{3}{4}) = -2\frac{1}{3} - 1\frac{3}{4}$

Converting the improper fractions to standard:

$-2\frac{1}{3} = -2 - \frac{1}{3} = -\frac{6}{3} - \frac{1}{3} = -\frac{7}{3}$

$-1\frac{3}{4} = -1 - \frac{3}{4} = -\frac{4}{4} - \frac{3}{4} = -\frac{7}{4}$

Solving the expression:

$-2\frac{1}{3} - 1\frac{3}{4} = -\frac{7}{3} - \frac{7}{4} = -\frac{28 + 21}{12} = -\frac{49}{12}$
