simplified answer pls

Answer 1

`-21(1)/(4)`

Explanation:

First you need to get them into improper fractions. To do that multiply the whole number by the bottom number, and then add the top number:

`-5(2)/(3) = -(17)/(3) \\3(3)/(4) = (15)/(4)`

Next, multiply the numerators (top numbers) by the denominators (bottom numbers)

`-(255)/(12)`

Next just fix it and make it a mixed number. Just divide -255 by 12

The answer is -21.25

Just make that into a fraction and you are finished
