Answer 2

Answer:

7$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1$\frac{2}{3}$ - $-5\frac{2}{3}$

Multiply 1 and 3 to get 3.

$\frac{3+2}{3}$ - $(-\frac{5x3+2}{3} )$

Add 3 and 2 to get 5.

$\frac{5}{3}$ - $(-\frac{5x3+2}{3} )$

Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.

$\frac{5}{3}$ - $(-\frac{15+2}{3})$

Add 15 and 2 to get 17.

$\frac{5}{3}$ - (-$\frac{17}{3}$)

The opposite of -$\frac{17}{3}$ is $\frac{17}{3}$

$\frac{5}{3} + \frac{17}{3}$

Since $\frac{5}{3}$ and $\frac{17}{3}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$\frac{5+17}{3}$

Add 5 and 17 to get 22.

$\frac{22}{3}$

Simplify

$\frac{2 x11}{3} = 7\frac{1}{3}$
