Simplify

Question

- 3/4r + 3 - 5/6r - 6

Answer 1

To simplify this expression, combine like terms.

First, combine the terms with "r":

(-3/4r) - (5/6r)

To add these fractions, you need a common denominator of 12:

(-3/4r) - (5/6r) = (-9/12r) - (10/12r)

Next, combine the constant terms:

3 - 6 = -3

Putting it all together:

(-9/12r) - (10/12r) + (-3)

Combine the "r" terms first:

-19/12r + (-3)

This can be written as:

-19/12r - 3

So the simplified expression is -19/12r - 3.
