You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(\frac{-5}{6} - \frac{-2}{3} - {\left( \frac{-1}{4} \right)}^{2}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[\frac{-5}{6} - \frac{-2}{3} - {\left( \frac{-1}{4} \right)}^{2} = - \frac{11}{48} = -0.2291\overline{6}\]


\[\begin{aligned}\frac{-5}{6} - \frac{-2}{3} - {\left( \frac{-1}{4} \right)}^{2}& = - \frac{5}{6} + \frac{2}{3} - \left(- \frac{1}{4}\right)^{2}\\& = - \frac{5}{6} + \frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{16}\\& = - \frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{16}\\& = - \frac{11}{48}\end{aligned}\]
