Question

solve using distributive property . 5/9*(-4)+6/11*(-5/9)​

Answer 1

Answer:

-250/99

Step-by-step explanation:

5/9*(-4) + 6/11*(-5/9)

=5/9*(-4) + 5/9*(-6/11)

=-5/9{(4)+(6/11)}

= -5/9(50/11)

= -250/99

Answer 2

Answer:

-2.52 might be the answer. Hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/9 x (-4) + 6/11 x (-5/9)

1. multiply across

5/9 x -4/1= -20/9 ; 6/11 x -5/9= -30/99

2. make both denominators equal by multiplying 11 to -20/9 for denominator to be 99

-20/9 + -30/99 -> -220/99 + -30/99

3. Add fractions

-220/99 + -30/99 = -250/99 <- this may be your final answer but I wouldn't recommend

4. divide -250/99 to get -2.52

It's been awhile since I have done distributive so not sure if it is correct but please let me know if I am or not. :)
