Question

What is the difference? Complete the equation. -1 2/5 - (-4/5) = ?

Answer 1

It’s -3/5 for a shorter explanation

Answer 2

First convert them which will be

-7/5 - (-4/5)

so when you subtract a negative number from negative number they actually subtract ex = -4-(-2) = -2

so its simply 7/5-4/5 then add a negative sign

so

3/5

now add negative sign so

-3/5
