\(\dfrac{-7}{8}+\dfrac{8}{13}+\dfrac{-3}{5}+\dfrac{5}{13}\)
= \(\left(\dfrac{-7}{8}+\dfrac{-3}{5}\right)+\left(\dfrac{8}{13}+\dfrac{5}{13}\right)\)
= \(\left(\dfrac{-35}{40}+\dfrac{-24}{40}\right)+1\)
= \(\dfrac{-59}{40}+\dfrac{40}{40}=\dfrac{-19}{40}\)
=\(\left(\dfrac{8}{13}+\dfrac{5}{13}\right)+\left(\dfrac{-7}{8}+\dfrac{-3}{5}\right)\)
=\(1+\dfrac{-59}{40}\)
=\(\dfrac{-19}{40}\)
