Question

Divide the sum of 5/12 and -17/24by the product of2/5and7/4​

Answer 1

Answer:

-5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of 5/12 and -17/24,

$\frac{5}{12} + (\frac{-17}{24} )\\\\\frac{5}{12} - \frac{17}{24}\\\\\frac{10 - 17}{24} \\\\\frac{-7}{24}$

Product of 2/5 and 7/4,

$\frac{2}{5} * \frac{7}{4} \\\\\frac{14}{20} \\\\\frac{7}{10}$

Now,

Divide -7/24 by 7/10,

$\frac{-7}{24}/\frac{7}{10} \\\\\frac{-7}{24} * \frac{10}{7} \\\\\frac{-5}{12}$
