Subtract : (-8/9) from (-3/5) |
Answer» (-8/9) from (-3/5) We have: = (-3/5) – (-8/9) = (-3/5) + (additive inverse of -8/9) = (-3/5) + (8/9) LCM of 5 and 9 is 45 Express each of the given rational numbers with the above LCM as the common denominator. Now, = [(-3×9)/ (5×9)] = (-27/45) = [(8×5)/ (9×5)] = (40/45) Then, = (-27/45) + (40/45) = (-27+40)/45 = (13/45) |
