Answer:

When you are adding or subtracting a negative fraction, you usually want to consider the numerator as negative. The method is just the same, except now you may need to add negative or positive numerators. The LCM of and is . To add the fractions with unlike denominators, rename the fractions with a common denominator.

Step-by-step explanation:


MrRoyal

Fractions are simply numbers represented as a quotient.

Take for instance the following addition of negative integers

[tex]\mathbf{-5 - 3}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{-5 - 3 = -(5 + 3)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{-5 - 3 = -8}[/tex]

Take for instance the following addition of negative fractions

[tex]\mathbf{-\frac 54 - \frac 34}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{-\frac 54 - \frac 43 = -\frac{(5 + 3)}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{-\frac54 - \frac34 = -\frac84}[/tex]

Notice that the scenarios above follow the same process, except taking the LCM of the fractions

This means that, the addition of negative fractions follow the same arithmetic process, as adding negative integers.
