Answer:

-11/10 or -1 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

First make the fraction to have the same denominator

the common denominator is 10

5 x 2= 10

2 x 5= 10

What you do to the denominator, do it to the numerator

-18/5 x 2/2 = -36/10

5/2 x 5/5 = 25/10

Now the equation is -36/10+ 25/10

you would also change the equation to subtraction and say 25/10 - 36/10

-36/10+25/10 = -11/10

25/10 - 36/10 = -11/10

Answer:


- (11)/(10) = -1 (1)/(10)= -1.1

Step-by-step explanation:


- (18)/(5) + (5)/(2) \\ - (18)/(5) ( * )/( * ) (2)/(2) + (5 * 5)/(2 * 5) \\ - (36)/(10) + (25)/(10) \\ = - (11)/(10) = - 1(1)/(10)
