Add -1 1/3+(-4 2/3)
To add -1 1/3 and -4 2/3, we first need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions.
-1 1/3 can be written as -4/3.
-4 2/3 can be written as -14/3.
Now, we can add the fractions:
-4/3 + (-14/3)
To add the fractions, we need a common denominator, which in this case is 3.
-4/3 and -14/3 already have the same denominators, so we can add the numerators:
(-4 + -14)/3
-18/3
Simplifying the fraction, we divide -18 by 3:
-6
Therefore, -1 1/3 + (-4 2/3) is equal to -6.
To add -1 1/3 and -4 2/3, we need to convert both mixed numbers to improper fractions.
First, let's convert -1 1/3 to an improper fraction.
-1 = -3/3, so -1 1/3 = -3/3 + 1/3 = -4/3.
Next, let's convert -4 2/3 to an improper fraction.
-4 = -12/3, so -4 2/3 = -12/3 + 2/3 = -10/3.
Now we can add the two improper fractions:
-4/3 + (-10/3) = -14/3.
Therefore, -1 1/3 + (-4 2/3) equals -14/3.
