Hello There!
If we add - 6 1/3 and 5 5/6 together, we will get a sum of - 1/2
STEP 1 First, I like to convert mixed numbers into improper fractions because they are easier to work with. So, I would change - 6 1/3 to - 19/3. Then, I would change 5 and 5/6 to 35/6.
STEP 2 Applying the fraction formula for addition. (-19x6) + (35x3) and then i would put this over 6x3
STEP 3 - 114+105
18
STEP 4
-9/18 = - 1/2

13/6
Step-by-step explanation:
-6 1/3 + 5 5/6
1. You can reduce the first equation to 2
-6 1/3, becomes - 2 x 1/1. This is because 3 goes into itself 1 time, and it goes into 6, - 2 times. Your new equation: - 2 + 5 5/6
2. Multiply the 5's in 5 5/6 by each other to get ...
25/6
Your new equation: - 2 + 25/6
3. Multiply 6 by - 2 to get - 12
4. Now add the numerators (remember - 12 is basically, - 12/1) together to get your answers
-12 + 25/6 = 13/6
