Answer 2

`\text{Hey there!}`

`-5(3)/(4)-3(1)/(2)=?`

`\text{-5}(3)/(4)=\text{-5}*\text{4+3}\rightarrow\text{-5}*4=-20\rightarrow\text{-20 + 3 = -23}`

`\text{The denominator stays the same:}-5(3)/(4)=-(23)/(4)`

`\text{3}(1)/(2)=3*2+1\rightarrow3*2=6+1\rightarrow6+1=7`

`\text{3}(1)/(2)=(7)/(2)`

`(-23)/(7)-(7)/(2)=?`
