Question

a, -13/30 + 11/20 - 7/15

b, -5 /72 : ( 3/8 . 7/9 ) 

c, -23/25 .10/17 +  -23/25 . 3/13 + -27/25

Answer 1

a ) \(-\frac{13}{30}+\frac{11}{20}-\frac{7}{15}\)

\(=-\frac{26}{60}+\frac{33}{60}-\frac{28}{60}\)

\(=\frac{-26+33-28}{60}=-\frac{7}{20}\)

b ) \(-\frac{5}{72}:\left(\frac{3}{8}.\frac{7}{9}\right)\)

 \(=-\frac{5}{72}:\frac{3.7}{8.9}\)

\(=-\frac{5}{72}:\frac{7}{24}\)

\(=-\frac{5}{72}.\frac{24}{7}=-\frac{5}{21}\)

 

 

 

 

Answer 2

a) \(\frac{-13}{30}+\frac{11}{20}-\frac{7}{15}=\frac{-26}{60}+\frac{33}{60}-\frac{28}{60}=-\frac{21}{60}=-\frac{7}{20}\)

b) \(\frac{-5}{72}:\left(\frac{3}{8}.\frac{7}{9}\right)=\frac{-5}{72}:\frac{7}{24}=-\frac{5}{21}\)

c) \(\frac{-23}{25}.\frac{10}{13}+\frac{-23}{25}.\frac{3}{13}+\frac{-27}{25}\)

\(=\frac{-23}{25}.\left(\frac{10}{13}+\frac{3}{13}\right)+\frac{-27}{25}\)

\(=\frac{-23}{25}+\frac{-27}{25}\)

\(=\frac{-50}{25}=-2\)
