describe the correct way to find the sum of p and q if p = - 5/9 and q = -2 /9

2 answers

To find the sum of p and q, we need to add their values together.

Given:
p = -5/9
q = -2/9

To add fractions, we need the same denominator. Both fractions already share a denominator of 9, so we can simply add the numerators:
p + q = (-5/9) + (-2/9)

Adding the numerators, we get:
p + q = (-5 - 2) / 9

Simplifying the numerator, we have:
p + q = -7 / 9

Therefore, the correct way to find the sum of p and q is -7/9.
