Subtract : (-9/7) from (-1)

Answer»

(-9/7) from (-1)

We have:

= (-1/1) – (-9/7)

= (-1/1) + (additive inverse of -9/7)

= (-1/1) + (9/7)

LCM of 1 and 7 is 7

Express each of the given rational numbers with the above LCM as the common denominator.

Now,

= [(-1×7)/ (1×7)] = (-7/7)

= [(9×1)/ (7×1)] = (9/7)

Then,

= (-7/7) + (9/7)

= (-7+9)/7

= (2/7)
