Tip: look at the entire equation, focus on the first two numbers.
-5/6 minus 7/-8
to know how to do this a detailed way and not like the butterfly because i know how that's hard to understand...
Take the first fraction and convert it into a decimal, then do the same with the next fraction and subtract it.
Tip: to convert a fraction into a decimal, divide the top number by the bottom number.
-5 / 6 = -0.833
7 / -8 = -0.875
0.833 - 0.875 = -0.042
Continue this process until you get all the numbers then solve the equation:
-0.042 + 0.916 + -0.166 - 0.437 = 0.271
Take your answer and put it over 1, then multiply both the numerator and denominator by 1,000 in order to convert the decimal to a fraction.
0.271/1
0.271 x 1000 = 271
1 x 100 = 1000
Simplify your answers as much as possible.
271 / 5 = 54.2 / 2 = 27
1000 / 5 = 200 / 2 = 100
new fraction: 27/100

Tip: what's in the parenthesis is just the same as any other number but split apart to where you have to do more math.
#17 is just like #16 pretty much so i'm just going to let you figure it out :]
<3 Enjoy,
