Answer:


-(41)/(65)

Explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question remember to use KCC (Keep, Change, Change) and find the least common denominator. (LCD)


-(3)/(13)-(2)/(5)

Use KCC


-(3)/(13) +-(2)/(5)

Now add


LCD=65


(-3*5)/(13*5) -(2*13)/(5*13)


=(-15-26)/(65)


=-(41)/(65)

Hope this helps.
