-5/8-(-11/12)
Subtracting a negative is adding a positive, so -(-11/12) is + 11/12
-5/8 + 11/12
As with any problem in fractions, convert them to a common denominator.
In this case, that would be 1/24.
Both 3/3 and 2/2 are equal to 1, so the value of each fraction is not changing,
only the way they are presented is changing.
((-5/8) * (3/3)) + ((11/12) * (2/2)) = -15/24 + 22/24 = 7/24
7/24 can't be reduced, so that is the answer
