Question

Evaluate : 2/3 + -4/5 - 1/3 - 2/5

Answer 1

Answer:

$\red {\frac{2}{3} + \frac{(-4)}{5} - \frac{1}{3} - \frac{2}{5} } \green {= \frac{-13}{15} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Given \: \frac{2}{3} + \frac{(-4)}{5} - \frac{1}{3} - \frac{2}{5}$

/* Rearranging the terms , we get

$= \frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{3} - \frac{4}{5} - \frac{2}{5}$

$= \frac{2-1}{3} - \frac{ 4+2}{5}$

$= \frac{1}{3} - \frac{ 6}{5}$

$= \frac{5-18}{15}$

$= \frac{-13}{15}$

Therefore.,

$\red {\frac{2}{3} + \frac{(-4)}{5} - \frac{1}{3} - \frac{2}{5} } \green {= \frac{-13}{15} }$
