\(a.\dfrac{7}{8}+\dfrac{1}{2}\text{=}\dfrac{11}{8}\)
\(b.\dfrac{5}{6}+\left(-2\right)\text{=}\dfrac{-7}{6}\)
\(c.\dfrac{2}{5}+\dfrac{-3}{8}\text{=}\dfrac{1}{40}\)
\(d.\dfrac{5}{7}-\dfrac{3}{8}\text{=}\dfrac{19}{56}\)
\(e.\dfrac{3}{4}-\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{7}{6}\text{=}\dfrac{17}{12}\)
`a. 7/8 + 1/2 = 7/8 + 4/8=(7+4)/8=11/8`
`b. 5/6 + (-2) =5/6 + (-12/6)=-7/6`
`c. 2/5 + -3/8 = 16/40 + (-15/40)=1/40`
`d. 5/7 - 3/8 = 40/56 - 21/56=19/56`
`e. 3/4 - 1/2 +7/6= 3/4 - 2/4 + 7/6= 1/4 + 7/6= 6/24 + 28/24= 34/24=17/12`
