The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of dividing the sum of \(-\frac{13}{5}\) and \(-\frac{4}{15}\) by their difference, we can break it down into clear steps. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the sum and difference**: - We need to find the sum: \[ \text{Sum} = -\frac{13}{5} + \left(-\frac{4}{15}\right) \] - And the difference: \[ \text{Difference} = -\frac{13}{5} - \left(-\frac{4}{15}\right) \] 2. **Calculate the sum**: - To add these fractions, we need a common denominator. The least common multiple (LCM) of 5 and 15 is 15. - Convert \(-\frac{13}{5}\) to a fraction with a denominator of 15: \[ -\frac{13}{5} = -\frac{13 \times 3}{5 \times 3} = -\frac{39}{15} \] - Now add: \[ \text{Sum} = -\frac{39}{15} - \frac{4}{15} = -\frac{39 + 4}{15} = -\frac{43}{15} \] 3. **Calculate the difference**: - For the difference, we convert \(-\frac{4}{15}\) to a fraction with a denominator of 5: \[ -\frac{4}{15} = -\frac{4 \times 1}{15 \times 1} = -\frac{4}{15} \] - Now subtract: \[ \text{Difference} = -\frac{13}{5} + \frac{4}{15} = -\frac{39}{15} + \frac{4}{15} = -\frac{39 - 4}{15} = -\frac{35}{15} \] 4. **Divide the sum by the difference**: - Now we have: \[ \text{Sum} = -\frac{43}{15}, \quad \text{Difference} = -\frac{35}{15} \] - To divide these fractions: \[ \text{Result} = \frac{-\frac{43}{15}}{-\frac{35}{15}} = \frac{43}{35} \] ### Final Answer: The final answer is: \[ \frac{43}{35} \]
