Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: $=-4\frac{7}{40}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3\frac{1}{5}+\left(-7\frac{3}{8}\right)$

$=\frac{16}{5}+\left(-\frac{59}{8}\right)$

$\frac{16}{5}+\left(-\frac{59}{8}\right)=\frac{16}{5}-\frac{59}{8}$

$=\frac{128}{40}-\frac{295}{40}$

$=\frac{128-295}{40}$

$=\frac{-167}{40}$

$=-4\frac{7}{40}$
