Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Simplifying:
(i)`(-3)/2+5/4-7/4`
`=(-3)/2+5/4-7/4`
Taking LCM, we get LCM as `4`.
`=(-6+5-7)/4`
`=-8/4`
Dividing the numerator and denominator by `4`
`=-2`
Hence, we get the answer as `-2`.

Simplifying:
(ii)`5/3-7/6+(-2)/3`
`=5/3-7/6-2/3`
Taking LCM, we get LCM as `6`.
`=(10-7-4)/6`
`=-1/6`
Hence, we get the answer as `-1/6`.
