Evaluate: (-3) – (4/7) |
Answer» (-3) – (4/7) We have: = (-3/1) – (4/7) = (-3/1) + (additive inverse of 4/7) = (-3/1) + (-4/7) LCM of 1 and 7 is 7 Express each of the given rational numbers with the above LCM as the common denominator. Now, = [(-3×7)/ (1×7)] = (-21/7) = [(-4×1)/ (7×1)] = (-4/7) Then, = (-21/7) + (-4/7) = (-21-4)/7 = (-25/7) |
