\(a,\dfrac{5}{16}+\dfrac{-5}{24}=\dfrac{15}{48}-\dfrac{10}{48}=\dfrac{15-10}{48}=\dfrac{5}{48}\\ b,\dfrac{-2}{7}+\dfrac{3}{-5}=\dfrac{-10}{35}-\dfrac{21}{35}=\dfrac{-10-21}{35}=\dfrac{-31}{35}\\ c,\dfrac{-2}{-5}+\dfrac{-5}{-6}=\dfrac{2}{5}+\dfrac{5}{6}=\dfrac{12}{30}+\dfrac{25}{30}=\dfrac{12+25}{30}=\dfrac{37}{30}\\ d,\dfrac{-5}{-3}+\dfrac{3}{-7}=\dfrac{5}{3}-\dfrac{3}{7}=\dfrac{35}{21}-\dfrac{9}{21}=\dfrac{35-9}{21}=\dfrac{26}{21}\)
