can u help me now to do this cazz i don't understandd ;)
n+(-5)
n= 7/12 i amconfuseedd :O
its like the one u tell me
n + (-5) =
7/12 + (-5) = -4 5/12
i just have a litttle question how do u do it cazz i want to do another one almost the same but i don't know what do i have to do....
You have a minus 5. When you add 7/12 to minus 5, you get a minus 4 5/12.
Maybe this number line will help you.
_|______|______|______|______|_____|____-5 . . -4 . . -3 . . -2 . . -1 . . 0
ooooh now i know its easy lol thanks thankss......you are smart jeje ....bye
You're welcome.
Sorry the number line didn't come out the way I intended.

-5 . . -4 . . -3 . . -2 . . -1 . . 0
Of course, I can help you with that! To evaluate the expression n + (-5) when n = 7/12, you need to substitute the value of n into the expression and perform the addition. Here's how you can do it step by step:
Step 1: Replace n with its value, 7/12, in the expression n + (-5).
(7/12) + (-5)
Step 2: To add fractions, ensure that they have the same denominator.
Since -5 is an integer, you can rewrite it as -5/1 to make it a fraction:
(7/12) + (-5/1)
Step 3: Find a common denominator for the fractions, which in this case is 12.
(7/12) + (-60/12)
Step 4: Add the numerators while keeping the denominator constant:
(7 + (-60))/12
Step 5: Simplify the numerator:
-53/12
So, the expression n + (-5) when n is 7/12 is equal to -53/12.
