its not the right answer
Apologies for the incorrect response.

To add -127 and 314, we sum their numerical values:

-127 + 314 = 187

Since we are representing the answer as a reduced improper fraction, the numerator will be the result of the addition (187), and the denominator will be 1. Therefore, the answer is 187/1.
Add −12/7 + (3/14). Write your answer as a reduced improper fraction
To add -12/7 and 3/14, we need to find a common denominator. The least common multiple of 7 and 14 is 14. We will need to convert both fractions to have a denominator of 14.

For -12/7, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2 to get a denominator of 14:

(-12/7)(2/2) = -24/14

Now, the addition becomes:

-24/14 + 3/14

To add the fractions, we simply add the numerators and keep the common denominator:

(-24/14) + (3/14) = -21/14

Therefore, the answer as a reduced improper fraction is -21/14.
−1 1/3 + (−4 2/3) =
To add -1 1/3 and -4 2/3, we first need to convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions.

-1 1/3 can be expressed as a improper fraction by multiplying the whole number (-1) by the denominator of the fraction (3), then adding the numerator (1):

-1 1/3 = (-1 * 3 + 1)/3 = (-3 + 1)/3 = -4/3

Similarly, -4 2/3 can be converted to an improper fraction:

-4 2/3 = (-4 * 3 + 2)/3 = (-12 + 2)/3 = -10/3

Now, the addition becomes:

-4/3 + (-10/3)

To add fractions, we add the numerators and keep the common denominator:

-4/3 + (-10/3) = (-4 - 10)/3 = -14/3

Therefore, the answer is -14/3 as a reduced improper fraction.
