Question

$$E=\frac{-3}{4}+0.25$$

Solve for E

$E=-0.5$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Fraction $\frac{-3}{4}$ can be rewritten as $-\frac{3}{4}$ by extracting the negative sign.

$$E=-\frac{3}{4}+0.25$$

Convert decimal number $0.25$ to fraction $\frac{25}{100}$. Reduce the fraction $\frac{25}{100}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $25$.

$$E=-\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}$$

Since $-\frac{3}{4}$ and $\frac{1}{4}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$E=\frac{-3+1}{4}$$

Add $-3$ and $1$ to get $-2$.

$$E=\frac{-2}{4}$$

Reduce the fraction $\frac{-2}{4}$ to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out $2$.

$$E=-\frac{1}{2}$$
