Question

$$-5+1/7$$

Evaluate

$-\frac{34}{7}\approx -4.857142857$

Solution Steps

Convert $-5$ to fraction $-\frac{35}{7}$.

$$-\frac{35}{7}+\frac{1}{7}$$

Since $-\frac{35}{7}$ and $\frac{1}{7}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{-35+1}{7}$$

Add $-35$ and $1$ to get $-34$.

$$-\frac{34}{7}$$

Factor

$-\frac{34}{7} = -4\frac{6}{7} = -4.857142857142857$
