Question

A=5-\frac{11}{3}

Answer 1

what about a=-1 2/3+1/3

Answer 2

To simplify the expression \( A = 5 - \frac{11}{3} \), we first need to convert \( 5 \) into a fraction with a common denominator of \( 3 \).

We can express \( 5 \) as \( \frac{15}{3} \) (since \( 5 = \frac{5 \times 3}{3} = \frac{15}{3} \)).

Now, we can rewrite the equation:

\[
A = \frac{15}{3} - \frac{11}{3}
\]

Now, we subtract the fractions:

\[
A = \frac{15 - 11}{3} = \frac{4}{3}
\]

Thus, the simplified value of \( A \) is:

\[
\boxed{\frac{4}{3}}
\]

Answer 3

To simplify the expression \( a = -1 \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{3} \), we first convert the mixed number \(-1 \frac{2}{3}\) into an improper fraction.

The mixed number \(-1 \frac{2}{3}\) can be converted as follows:

\[
-1 \frac{2}{3} = -\left(1 + \frac{2}{3}\right) = -\left(\frac{3}{3} + \frac{2}{3}\right) = -\frac{5}{3}
\]

Now, substitute this back into the expression:

\[
a = -\frac{5}{3} + \frac{1}{3}
\]

Now, we can add these two fractions:

\[
a = \frac{-5 + 1}{3} = \frac{-4}{3}
\]

Thus, the simplified value of \( a \) is:

\[
\boxed{-\frac{4}{3}}
\]
