Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to find the area of a trapezoid is the following,

Where (
) represents the heights of the trapezoid, (
) and (
) represent the bases of the trapezoid, or rather the two parallel sides of the trapezoid.
One is given all of these values in the picture,

Substitute these values into the formula and solve for the area of the trapezoid,

Simplify,

Okay. So, what you do is subtract the negative number from the positive number. Let’s find the lowest common multiple of each number. The lowest common multiple (LCD) is 6. So we set this problem up as 2 3/6 - 1 1/6. When we subtract both numbers, you get 1 2/6. or 1 1/3 in simplest form. Now, you subtract again. Because 1 3/4 is greater than the number we are subtracting from, which is 1 1/3, the answer will be negative. The LCM of 3 and 4 is 12, so 12 will be the LCD. Let’s subtract to get our negative difference. 1 9/12 - 1 4/12 is 5/12. Plug in the negative symbol and you have -5/12. There. The answer is -5/12.
