let's convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then let's proceed.
to convert an improper fraction like -31/5 to a mixed fraction, well, first off, we nevermind the sign, so we only use 31/5 and then we divide 31 ÷ 5.
hmm 31 ÷ 5 gives us a quotient of 6, and a remainder of 1, we put the quotient upfront and the remainder as the numerator, with the old denominator and sign back in.
