Answer:

-25/12

Explanation:

Given expression:


\bullet \ \ (-1)/(3) + \huge\text{(}(-7)/(4) \huge\text{)}

Open the parenthesis:


\implies (-1)/(3) + \huge\text((-7)/(4) \huge\text)


\implies (-1)/(3) - (7)/(4)

Make common denominators:


\implies (-1 * 4)/(3 * 4) - (7 * 3)/(4 * 3)


\implies (-4)/(12) - (21)/(12)

Subtract the fractions:


\implies \boxed{(-25)/(12)}
