Question
Simplifiy: $\frac{1}{-12}+\frac{2}{-15}$
✓
Answer
$\frac{1}{-12}+\frac{2}{-15}$
$\frac{1}{-12}+\frac{2}{-15}$
$LCM$ of $12$ and $15$ is $60$ $\frac{-1}{12}=\frac{-1\times5}{12\times5}=\frac{-5}{60}$
$\frac{-1}{12}=\frac{-2\times4}{15\times4}=\frac{-8}{60}$
$\frac{-1}{12}-\frac{2}{15}=\frac{-5}{60}+\frac{-8}{60}$
$=\frac{-5-8}{60}$
$=\frac{-13}{60}$
$\frac{1}{-12}+\frac{2}{-15}$
$LCM$ of $12$ and $15$ is $60$ $\frac{-1}{12}=\frac{-1\times5}{12\times5}=\frac{-5}{60}$
$\frac{-1}{12}=\frac{-2\times4}{15\times4}=\frac{-8}{60}$
$\frac{-1}{12}-\frac{2}{15}=\frac{-5}{60}+\frac{-8}{60}$
$=\frac{-5-8}{60}$
$=\frac{-13}{60}$
