-1 -6/5
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(-1 - \frac{6}{5}\)
MathBot Answer:
\[ -1 - \frac{6}{5} = - \frac{11}{5} = -2.2 \]
The sum can be computed by rewriting each term over a common denominator, where the least common denominator of \(\frac{-1}{1}\) and \(\frac{-6}{5}\) is \(5\). \[ \begin{aligned} -1 - \frac{6}{5} &= \frac{-1 \cdot 5}{1 \cdot 5} + \frac{-6 \cdot 1}{5 \cdot 1} \\ &= \frac{-5 + -6}{5} \\ &= \frac{-11}{5} \end{aligned} \]
