Question

-7/12- (-1/5)

Answer 1

\(-\dfrac{7}{12}-\left(-\dfrac{1}{5}\right)=-\dfrac{7}{12}+\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{-7\times5+12}{60}=\dfrac{-35+12}{60}=-\dfrac{23}{60}\)

Answer 2

\(=-\dfrac{7}{12}+\dfrac{1}{5}=-\dfrac{35}{60}+\dfrac{12}{60}=-\dfrac{23}{60}\)

Answer 3

= \(\dfrac{-7}{12}\)+\(\dfrac{1}{5}\)

= \(\dfrac{-35}{60}\)+\(\dfrac{12}{60}\)

= \(\dfrac{-23}{60}\)

Answer 4

= - 35/60 + 12/60 = - 23/60
