Question

Evaluate the expression shown below and write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

11/6 + -11/10

Answer 1

Answer: 11/15

Explanation:

To evaluate the expression 11/6 + (-11/10), you first need to find a common denominator, which is 30 in this case.

So, you'll need to rewrite the fractions with a common denominator:

(11/6) * (5/5) = 55/30

(-11/10) * (3/3) = -33/30

Now, you can add the fractions:

(55/30) + (-33/30) = (55 - 33)/30 = 22/30

Finally, simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:

(22/2) / (30/2) = 11/15

So, the simplified fraction is 11/15.
