Answer:

1.1/6

2.19/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1.For the first problem,

-4/3-(-3/2)

To solve this kind of question, ensure that you start with the bracket first so as to make your work easier

-4/3-(-3/2)

So let's get to work

-4/3+3/2

So to continue solving we will have to look for the LCM and the LCM is 6

-8+9/6

So solving further will give you

1/6

Note that there's no negative sign in front of the answer therefore the final answer is 1/6

2.(-4/3)+(3/2)3=-8/3+9/2=1/5

Ok let's start,we can't just solve further without taking the necessary steps

Bracket first from the left side

-4/3+9/2

Find the LCM and the LCM is 6

-8+27/6

+19/6

Therefore the final answer is 19/6

And not 1/5

The mistake is that if you are given two fractions to add ensure that you solve it through LCM and not directly,if not you will get another answer which will be different from the correct answer... hope you understand what I'm trying to say
