a 11/36 - ( -7 )/24
= 11/36 + 7/24
= 22/72 + 21/72
= 43/72
-5/9 - -5/12
= -5/9 + 5/12
= -20/36 + 15/36
= -5/36
\(\frac{11}{36}-\frac{-7}{24}=\frac{11}{36}+\frac{7}{24}=\frac{22}{72}+\frac{21}{72}=\frac{43}{72}\)
\(-\frac{5}{9}-\frac{-5}{12}=-\frac{5}{9}+\frac{5}{12}=-\frac{20}{36}+\frac{15}{36}=-\frac{5}{36}\)
