Answer:
Explanation:
To find the sum of -9/16 and 11/12, we need to have a common denominator. In this case, the least common multiple of 16 and 12 is 48.
Now, we can rewrite the fractions with the common denominator of 48:
-9/16 = -27/48 (multiply numerator and denominator by 3)
11/12 = 44/48 (multiply numerator and denominator by 4)
Now that both fractions have the same denominator, we can add them together:
-27/48 + 44/48 = (-27 + 44)/48 = 17/48
Therefore, the sum of -9/16 and 11/12 is 17/48.
