Answer 2

Answer:

$=> \frac{-79}{36}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

$\frac{-16}{9}+(\frac{-5}{12})$

To find: $\frac{-16}{9}+(\frac{-5}{12})=?$

For simplifying we have to use the concept of DMAS,

It includes various mathematical operations:

D - division  

M - multiplication  

A - addition  

S - subtraction

As we have,

$=>\frac{-16}{9}+(\frac{-5}{12})$

Now, we have to calculate the LCM:

$=>\frac{-16\times 4}{9\times 4}+(\frac{-5\times 3}{12\times 3})$

Multiplying the terms in the numerator as well as the denominator,

$=> \frac{-64}{36}+(\frac{-15}{36})$

By combining the fractions we get,

$=> \frac{-64+(-15)}{36}$

Add both the terms in the numerator,

$=> \frac{-79}{36}$

Hence, the required solution is $\frac{-79}{36}.$
