Question

Add
the
following -5/12 -7/18​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{-5}{12}+\left(\frac{-7}{18}\right)=\frac{-29}{36}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{-5}{12}+\left(\frac{-7}{18}\right)$

/* LCM (12,18) = 36 */

$= \frac{-5}{12}-\frac{7}{18}$

$=\frac{(-5)\times 3-7\times2}{36}\\=\frac{-15-14}{36}\\=\frac{-29}{36}$

Therefore,

$\frac{-5}{12}+\left(\frac{-7}{18}\right)=\frac{-29}{36}$

Answer 2

Given:

⇒  $(\frac{-5}{17} )$ , $(\frac{-7}{18} )$

To Find:

The addition of $(\frac{-5}{12} )$ and $(\frac{-7}{18})$ = ?

Solution:

On applying addition between the given expressions, we get

⇒  $(\frac{-5}{12}) +(\frac{-7}{18})$

⇒  $-\frac{5}{12} -\frac{7}{18}$

On taking LCM, we get

⇒  $\frac{-15-14}{36}$

⇒  $-\frac{29}{36}$

So that on adding we will get "-29/36".
