Question

$$\frac { - 8 } { 19 } + ( - \frac { 2 } { 57 } )$$

$-\frac{26}{57}\approx -0.456140351$

Fraction $\frac{-8}{19}$ can be rewritten as $-\frac{8}{19}$ by extracting the negative sign.

$$-\frac{8}{19}-\frac{2}{57}$$

Least common multiple of $19$ and $57$ is $57$. Convert $-\frac{8}{19}$ and $\frac{2}{57}$ to fractions with denominator $57$.

$$-\frac{24}{57}-\frac{2}{57}$$

Since $-\frac{24}{57}$ and $\frac{2}{57}$ have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.

$$\frac{-24-2}{57}$$

Subtract $2$ from $-24$ to get $-26$.

$$-\frac{26}{57}$$

$-\frac{26}{57} = -0.45614035087719296$
