= 11/12 - 1/6q + 5/6q - 1/3
to add like terms, we must first convert 1/3 to a common denominator with 11/12
= 11/12 - 1/6q + 5/6q - 4/12
combine like terms
= (-1/6q + 5/6q) + (11/12 - 4/12)
add/subtract inside each parentheses
= 4/6q + 7/12
simplify 4/6 by 2
= 2/3q + 7/12
ANSWER: 2/3q + 7/12
Hope this helps! :)
