-4/3--11/3
To calculate this, we can rewrite the subtraction as the addition of the negative of the second fraction:
-4/3 - (-11/3) = -4/3 + 11/3
Now, since the fractions have the same denominator, we can add their numerators:
-4 + 11 = 7
So, the simplified form of -4/3 - (-11/3) is 7/3.
To subtract a negative fraction from another negative fraction, you can rewrite it as a addition problem by changing the sign and then perform the addition.
Let's rewrite the problem as addition: -4/3 + 11/3.
To add fractions with the same denominator, you simply add their numerators and keep the denominator the same.
So, -4/3 + 11/3 = (-4 + 11)/3.
Simplifying the numerator, we get -4 + 11 = 7.
Therefore, the final result is 7/3.
To subtract fractions, you need to have a common denominator. The common denominator is the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators.
In this case, the denominators are both 3, so the LCM is also 3. To make the denominators the same, we can rewrite the expression as:
-4/3 - (-11/3)
Next, we can simplify the expression:
-4/3 + 11/3
Since the denominators are now the same, we can add the numerators and keep the denominator the same:
(-4 + 11)/3
Simplifying further, we get:
7/3
So, -4/3 - (-11/3) is equal to 7/3.
