Answer:


Explanation:

1.
(-1)/(2) + (1)/(3)

We solve it by taking LCM (-3 + 2) / (3 x 6) = 1/6

2.
-3(1)/(5) + (-6(1)/(2) )

By taking LCM:

-3 1/5 = (-3 x 5 + 1) / 5 = -16/5

-6 1/2 = - (6 x 2 +1) / 2 = -13/2

Subtracting these values:

-16/5 + (-13/2) = -97/10

3.
(5)/(8) - (-(2)/(8) )

Adding the fraction to get: 5/8 + 2/8 = 7/8

4.
-(9)/(10) - (2)/(5)

Taking the LCM:

(-9 - 4) / 10 = 13/10

5.
6(3)/(5) - (-2(1)/(5) )

Taking the LCM to get:

33/5 + 11/5 = 22/5

Part a)
-(1)/(2) +(1)/(3)


-(1)/(2) +(1)/(3)=(-3+2)/((3*2)) =-(1)/(6)

the answer Part a) is


-(1)/(6)

Part b)
-3(1)/(5) +(-6(1)/(2) )

we know that


-3(1)/(5)=-(3*5+1)/(5)=- (16)/(5)


-6(1)/(2)=-(6*2+1)/(2)=- (13)/(2)

substitute


- (16)/(5)-(13)/(2)=(-32-65)/(10) =-(97)/(10)

therefore

the answer part b) is


-(97)/(10)

Part c)
(5)/(8)-(- (2)/(8))


(5)/(8)-(- (2)/(8))=(5)/(8)+ (2)/(8)=(7)/(8)

therefore

the answer part c) is


(7)/(8)

Part d)
-(9)/(10)- (2)/(5)


-(9)/(10)- (2)/(5) =(-9-4)/(10)=- (13)/(10)

therefore

the answer part d) is


- (13)/(10)

Part e)
6(3)/(5)-(2(1)/(5))

we know that


6(3)/(5)=(6*5+3)/(5)=(33)/(5)


2(1)/(5)=(2*5+1)/(5)=(11)/(5)

substitute


(33)/(5)-(11)/(5)=(22)/(5)

therefore

the answer Part e) is


(22)/(5)
