Answer:
[tex]\frac{5}{3} + (-\frac{7}{6})[/tex] reduced to the simplest form is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{5}{3} + (-\frac{7}{6})[/tex]
First, rearrange the fractions so that they have the same denominator. We do this by finding the common multiple of 3 and 6 and multiplying the numerators by the number of times it takes to get to the denominator when multiplying.
[tex]\frac{10}{6}+(- \frac{7}{6} )[/tex]
Now, since 7/6 is negative, then it would just be like subtracting 7/6 from 10/6.
[tex]\frac{10}{6} -\frac{7}{6} = \frac{3}{6}[/tex]
Now, all we have to do is reduce the fraction 3/6.
[tex]\frac{3}{6}= \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
So, your final answer would be [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
