Question

a ) \(\dfrac{7}{-25}\) + \(\dfrac{-8}{25}\)

b ) \(\dfrac{7}{21}\) - \(\dfrac{9}{-36}\)

c )\(\dfrac{-3}{4}\) + \(\dfrac{2}{7}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{4}\)+\(\dfrac{5}{7}\)

Answer 1

a)\(\dfrac{7}{-25}+-\dfrac{8}{25}=-\dfrac{15}{25}=-\dfrac{3}{5}\)
b)\(\dfrac{7}{21}-\dfrac{9}{-36}\)
\(=\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{4}\)
\(=\dfrac{4}{12}+\dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{7}{12}\)
c)\(-\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{2}{7}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{5}{7}\)
\(=\left(-\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)+\left(\dfrac{2}{7}+\dfrac{5}{7}\right)\)
\(=-\dfrac{1}{2}+1\)
\(=\dfrac{2}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{1}{2}\)

Answer 2

\(a,\dfrac{7}{-25}+\dfrac{-8}{25}=\dfrac{-7}{25}+\dfrac{-8}{25}=\dfrac{-15}{25}=\dfrac{-3}{5}\\ b,\dfrac{7}{21}-\dfrac{9}{-36}=\dfrac{7}{21}+\dfrac{9}{36}=\dfrac{7}{12}\\ c,\dfrac{-3}{4}+\dfrac{2}{7}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{5}{7}\\ =\left(\dfrac{-3}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)+\left(\dfrac{2}{7}+\dfrac{5}{7}\right)\\ =-\dfrac{1}{2}+1\\ =\dfrac{1}{2}\)
