Answer:

2/7 + (-3/4) + (-2/7) + 4/3

If we look at 2/7 and (-2/7), we can see that both of them combined will get you a result of 0, so let's do that first.

2/7 + (-2/7) = 0

Now we're left with;

(-3/4) + 4/3

Make sure to convert both fractions into having a common denominator,

[They both have a common denominator of 12], so:

(-3/4) = (-9/12)

4/3 = 16/12

Add them:

(-9/12) + 16/12

16/12 - 9/12

= 7/12, which cannot further be simplified.
