Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know how to use it using a number line sorry
-1/3 - (-1/2)
Two minuses give us a plus
so:
-1/3 + 1/2
make the denominators the same and what you multiply at the bottom you multiply at the top (check online about adding fractions if you don't understand)
so:
-2/6 + 3/6 = 1/6
Problem 1
Draw a straight line and plot X anywhere on it.
Use your compass to trace out a circle with radius 1.5 cm. The circle intersects the line at two points. Let's make Y one of those points.
Also from point X, draw a circle of radius 2.5
This second circle will intersect another circle of radius 3.5 and this third circle is centered at point Z.
Check out the diagram below to see what I mean.
=====================================================
Problem 2
Draw a straight line and plot L anywhere on it.
Adjust your compass to 4 cm in width. Draw a circle around point L.
This circle crosses the line at two spots. Focus on one of those spots and call it M.
Draw another circle centered at point M. Keep the radius at 4 cm.
The two circles intersect at two points. Focus on one of the points and call it N.
The last step is to connect L, M and N to form the equilateral triangle.
See the image below.

Problem 3
I'm not sure how to do this using a compass and straightedge. I used GeoGebra to make the figure below instead. It's a free graphing and geometry program which is very useful. I used the same app to make the drawings for problem 1 and problem 2 earlier.
By reducing 21/30 you dived 21 and 30 by 3 and you will get 7/10. Is 7/10 larger than 2/3? If we put these fractions in decimal form we will see 7/10 turns into 0.7 and 2/3 turns into 0.667. So the answer is 21/30 is larger than 2/3.
