What should be subtracted from \(\frac{-5}{3}\) to get \(\frac{5}{6}\,?\)A. \(\frac{5}{2}\)B. \(\frac{3}{2}\)C. \(\frac{5}{4}\)D. \(\frac{-5}{2}\) |

Answer» Let the number subtracted be x. Then, \(\frac{-5}{3}-\text{x}=\frac{5}{6}\) \(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{-5}{3}-\frac{5}{6}\) \(=\frac{-5\times2-5\times1}{6}\) \(=\frac{-10-5}{6}\) \(=\frac{-15}{6}=\frac{-15\div3}{6\div3}=\frac{-5}{2}\) |
