Question

-5 1/2 - 4 1/4 + 6 3/4
What is this ​

Answer 1

`\large\boxed{-5(1)/(2)-4(1)/(4)+6(3)/(4)==-3}`

Explanation:

`-5(1)/(2)-4(1)/(4)+6(3)/(4)=-5(1)/(2)+\left(-4(1)/(4)\right)+6(3)/(4)\\\\\text{Use the Associative Property:}\ (a+b)+c=a+(b+c)\\\\=-5(1)/(2)+\left(-4(1)/(4)+6(3)/(4)\right)=-5(1)/(2)+\bigg((6-4)+\left((3)/(4)-(1)/(4)\right)\bigg)\\\\=-5(1)/(2)+\bigg(2+(3-1)/(4)\bigg)=-5(1)/(2)+2(2\!\!\!\!\diagup^1)/(4\!\!\!\!\diagup_2)=-5(1)/(2)+2(1)/(2)=-3`

Answer 2

-3

Have a great day !
