Question

what should be subtracted from [1/2+1/3+1/4]to get-2

Answer 1

Answer:

37/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets solve the bracket first,

[1/2+1/3+1/4] = 13/12        (We can take LCM and get this value)

Now lets assume we subtracted x from this,

So x should be such that when we subtract it from 13/12 we get -2,

$\frac{13}{12}$ - x = -2

Therefore, x = $\frac{13}{12}$ + 2   (Take LCM)

       x = $\frac{13 + 24}{12}$ = $\frac{37}{12}$
