Question

What should be subtracted from-2/3 to get -1/6

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{ - 2}{3} - x = \frac{ - 1}{6} \\ = > x = \frac{1}{6} - \frac{ 2}{3} = \frac{1 - 4}{6} = \frac{ - 3}{6} = - \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ checking = > \frac{ - 2}{3} - ( \frac{ - 1}{2} ) = \frac{ - 2}{3} + \frac{1}{2} = \\ \frac{ - 4 + 3}{6} = \frac{ - 1}{6}$
