Answer 2

Answer:

We will get the value of $\frac{-7}{8} -\frac{-5}{6}=-\frac{1}{24} .$

Step-by-step explanation:

• As per the question we have to evaluate the given data.

         Given data:- $\frac{-7}{8} -\frac{-5}{6}.$

         To find:- Value of $\frac{-7}{8} -\frac{-5}{6}.$

         Solution:-

• We will take the LCM of the denominators, and make denominators the same.

• We will Convert the given fractions to equivalent fractions with the denominator as the LCM.

• Subtract the numerators over the denominators.

        Therefore,

         $\begin{array}{l}\frac{-7}{8}-\frac{-5}{6} \\\\=\frac{-7 \times 3}{8 \times 3}-\frac{-5 \times 4}{6 \times 4} \\\\=\frac{-21}{24}-\frac{-20}{24} \\\\=\frac{-21--20}{24} \\\\=-\frac{1}{24}\end{array}$

      The question is to find the value of $\frac{-7}{8} -\frac{-5}{6}.$
