Question

$$\frac{-5}{7}+\frac{6}{7}=\frac{1}{7}$$

Verify

$\text{true}$

Solution Steps

Fraction $\frac{-5}{7}$ can be rewritten as $-\frac{5}{7}$ by extracting the negative sign.

$$-\frac{5}{7}+\frac{6}{7}=\frac{1}{7}$$

Since $-\frac{5}{7}$ and $\frac{6}{7}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{-5+6}{7}=\frac{1}{7}$$

Add $-5$ and $6$ to get $1$.

$$\frac{1}{7}=\frac{1}{7}$$

Compare $\frac{1}{7}$ and $\frac{1}{7}$.

$$\text{true}$$
