Question

-27/30*(-5/9)-5/24*(-22/5)

Answer 1

$-\frac{27}{30} *(- \frac{5}{9}) - \frac{5}{24}*(-\frac{22}{5}) = \frac{3}{6} + \frac{22}{24} = \frac{12}{24} + \frac{22}{24} = \frac{34}{24} = \frac{17}{12} =1 \frac{5}{12}$

Answer 2

Let's simplify the expression step by step using the order of operations (PEMDAS) and fraction arithmetic:

• First, we have the multiplication and division inside parentheses:

scssCopy code
-27/30*(-5/9) - 5/24*(-22/5)
= 9/10 * 5/9 - 5/24 * (-22/5)

• Next, we need to simplify the multiplication and division of fractions:

scssCopy code
= 1/2 - (-11/24)

• Now we can simplify the subtraction of fractions by finding a common denominator:

= 12/24 - (-11/24)
= 23/24

Therefore, the simplified expression is 23/24.
