Question

-1/3 + -3/8 | pls include instructions/step by step! thx!

Answer 1

-1/3 + -3/8

denominator: -1/3 * 8

-3/8 * 3

<=> -8/24 + - 9/24

<=> (-8 + -9)/24

= -17/24

Answer 2

`\\ \sf\longmapsto (-1)/(3)+((-3)/(8))`

• Take lcm

`\\ \sf\longmapsto (-8+(-9))/(24)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto (-8-9)/(24)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto (-17)/(24)`
