Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Simplifying:
(i)`5/4-7/6-(-2)/3`
`=5/4-7/6+2/3`
Taking LCM, we get LCM as `12`.
`=(15-14+8)/12`
`=9/12`
Dividing numerator and denominator by `3`.
`=3/4`
Hence, we get the answer as `3/4`.

Simplifying:
(ii)`(-2)/5-(-3)/10-(-4)/7`
`=-2/5+3/10+4/7`
Taking LCM, we get LCM as `70`.
`=(-28+21+40)/70`
`=33/70`
Hence, we get the answer as `33/70`.
