a: \(=\dfrac{13}{40}+\dfrac{9}{40}-\dfrac{7}{40}=\dfrac{15}{40}=\dfrac{3}{8}\)
b: \(=\dfrac{-13}{30}+\dfrac{17}{45}-\dfrac{7}{18}\)
=-39/90+34/90-35/90
=-40/90=-4/9
c: \(=\left(-\dfrac{5}{7}-\dfrac{2}{7}\right)+\left(\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)+\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{1}{5}\)
d: \(=-\dfrac{3}{7}+\dfrac{11}{13}-\dfrac{2}{13}-\dfrac{4}{7}+1=\dfrac{9}{13}\)
