The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \(-\frac{6}{13} - \left(-\frac{7}{15}\right)\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Simplify the Expression We start with the expression: \[ -\frac{6}{13} - \left(-\frac{7}{15}\right) \] Since we have a negative sign in front of \(-\frac{7}{15}\), we can change the double negative into a positive: \[ -\frac{6}{13} + \frac{7}{15} \] ### Step 2: Find the LCM of the Denominators Next, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators 13 and 15 to add the fractions. The prime factors are: - 13 is a prime number. - 15 can be factored into \(3 \times 5\). The LCM is calculated as: \[ \text{LCM}(13, 15) = 13 \times 15 = 195 \] ### Step 3: Convert Each Fraction Now we convert each fraction to have the common denominator of 195. For \(-\frac{6}{13}\): \[ -\frac{6}{13} = -\frac{6 \times 15}{13 \times 15} = -\frac{90}{195} \] For \(\frac{7}{15}\): \[ \frac{7}{15} = \frac{7 \times 13}{15 \times 13} = \frac{91}{195} \] ### Step 4: Combine the Fractions Now we can combine the two fractions: \[ -\frac{90}{195} + \frac{91}{195} = \frac{-90 + 91}{195} = \frac{1}{195} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the final answer is: \[ \frac{1}{195} \] ---
