Question

simplify the following
1. 1/12+-5/18-7/24​

Answer 1

Answer:

1/12 = 6/72

-5/18 = -20/72

7/24 = 21/72

So 6/72 + (-20/72) - 21/72 = -35/72

Answer 2

Answer:

To solve this, we have to find a least common denominator. That's going to be 72.  

1/12 = 6/72  

-5/18 = -20/72  

7/24 = 21/72  

So 6/72 + (-20/72) - 21/72 = -35/72  

 

So, We can't simplify this fraction.
