Answer 2

Answer: 5a/3 - 3/8 - a/6

Explanation:

`\begin{array}{l}-(5)/(3)a+(1)/(8)-(1)/(6)a-(1)/(2)\\\\=-(5a)/(3)+(1)/(8)-(a)/(6)-(1)/(2)\ {\longrightarrow-\frac{5}\{3}=-(5a)/(3);\ (1)/(6)a=(a\cdot a)/(6)=(a)/(6)}\\\\=(5a)/(3)-(3)/(8)-(a)/(6){\longrightarrow{(1)/(8)-(1)/(2)=(1)/(8)-(4)/(8)=-(3)/(8)}}}}\end{array}`
