Question

-3/4 + 1/2 is equal to ​

Answer 1

• As per the data given in the question, we have to find the value of the expression.

               Given data:- $\frac{-3}{4}+\frac{1}{2} =?$

               To find:- the value of $\frac{-3}{4}+\frac{1}{2} .$

              Solution:-

• We will take the LCM of the denominators, and make denominators the same.
• We will Convert the given fractions to equivalent fractions with the denominator as the LCM.
• Adding the numerators over the denominators.

                   $\frac{-3}{4} +\frac{1}{2} \\=\frac{(-3)2+4}{4\times2} \\=\frac{-2}{8} \\=\frac{-1}{4} .$

        Hence $\frac{-3}{4}+\frac{1}{2}$ is equal to $\frac{-1}{4} .$

Answer 2

Answer:

The value is $\frac{-1}{4}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given $\frac{-3}{4} +\frac{1}{2}$.

To add them, the denominators of the two terms should be same.

The LCM of $2,4$ is $4$.

$=\frac{-3+1(2)}{4}$

$=\frac{-3+2}{4}$

$=\frac{-1}{4}$.
