Answer:
[tex]-\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{5}{-3} - \frac{4}{2} + \frac{1}{-3}[/tex]
Required
Simpify
The very first step is to take LCM of the given expression
[tex]\frac{-10 -4 - 2}{6}[/tex]
Perform arithmetic operations o the numerator
[tex]-\frac{16}{6}[/tex]
Divide the numerator and denominator by 2
[tex]-\frac{16/2}{6/2}[/tex]
[tex]-\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
The expression can't be further simplified;
Hence, [tex]\frac{5}{-3} - \frac{4}{2} + \frac{1}{-3}[/tex] = [tex]-\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
