$$- \frac{ 5 }{ 6 } + \frac{ 3 }{ 4 }$$

$-\frac{1}{12}\approx -0.083333333$

Least common multiple of $6$ and $4$ is $12$. Convert $-\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{3}{4}$ to fractions with denominator $12$.

$$-\frac{10}{12}+\frac{9}{12}$$

Since $-\frac{10}{12}$ and $\frac{9}{12}$ have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{-10+9}{12}$$

Add $-10$ and $9$ to get $-1$.

$$-\frac{1}{12}$$

$-\frac{1}{12} = -0.08333333333333333$
