Question

Evaluate: -7/8 – 5/6 + 3 OR​

Answer 1

➤ Answer :-

$\dashrightarrow \sf \frac{( - 7)}{8} - \frac{5}{6} + 3$

$\dashrightarrow \sf \frac{( - 7)}{8} - \frac{5}{6} + \frac{3}{1}$

LCM of 8 and 6 is 24.

$\dashrightarrow \sf \frac{( - 7) \times 3}{8 \times 3} - \frac{5 \times 4}{6 \times 4} + \frac{3 \times 24}{1 \times 24}$

$\dashrightarrow \sf \frac{( - 21)}{24} - \frac{20}{24} + \frac{72}{2}$

$\dashrightarrow \sf \frac{( - 21) - 20 + 72}{24}$

$\dashrightarrow \sf \frac{( - 21) - 92}{24}$

$\dashrightarrow \sf \frac{( - 113)}{24}$

$\Huge\therefore$The answer is $\sf\frac{(-113)}{24}$
