Answer 1

11 15/26 + [-17 5/13] =

`11 (15)/(26) = (301)/(26)`

`-17 (5)/(13) = -(226)/(13)`

`(301)/(26) - (226)/(13)`

To subtract two fractions the denominators should be same

Least common denominator = 26

We multiply second fraction by 2

`(301)/(26) - (452)/(26)`

`(301-452)/(26)`

`(-151)/(26)`
