I have included a picture. In the picture you will find the work and final answer.
Answer: B- 1 1/9
Work:
5 2/3 - 4 5/9
1 2/3 - 5/9
1 6/9 - 5/9
= 1 1/9
The left side 1.54070215
×
10
^16 does not equal to the right side 12
, which means that the given statement is false.
Since you are subtracting a negative you can do it this way. do 7 3/5 - 6 1/5. that leaves you with 1 2/5. so in the end you will have -1 2/5
