Answer 1

$\huge\bold{\mathbb{QUESTION}}$

Subtract the first number from the second number.

${\Large{\frac{-11}{20}}},\:{\Large{\frac{13}{15}}}$

$\huge\bold{\mathbb{TO\:FIND}}$

The difference.

$\huge\bold{\mathbb{SOLUTION}}$

${\Large{\frac{13}{15}}}-{\Large{\frac{-11}{20}}}$

$\implies{\Large{\frac{13}{15}}}+{\Large{\frac{11}{20}}}$

$\implies{\Large{\frac{\{(13×4)+(11×3)\}}{60}}}$

$\implies{\Large{\frac{(52+33)}{60}}}$

$\implies{\Large{\frac{85}{60}}}$

Divide the numerator and denominator by $5$.

$\implies{\Large{\frac{\cancel{85}}{\cancel{60}}}}$

$\implies{\Large{\frac{17}{12}}}$

$\implies1{\Large{\frac{5}{12}}}$

$\huge\bold{\mathbb{HENCE}}$

${\Large{\frac{13}{15}}}-{\Large{\frac{-11}{20}}}=1{\Large{\frac{5}{12}}}$

$\huge\bold{\mathbb{THEREFORE}}$

The final answer is $1{\Large{\frac{5}{12}}}$.

$\huge\bold{\mathbb{DONE}}$
