Answer: Firstly group the rational numbers with same denominators 2/3 + 1/3 + -4/5 + 2/5 (2+1)/3 + (-4+2)/5 3/3 + -2/5 1/1 + -2/5 By taking LCM for 1 and 5 we get, 5 (1×5)/(1×5) + (-2×1)/(5×1) 5/5 + -2/5 Since the denominators are same can be added directly (5-2)/5 = 3/5 Answer 2/3 + 1/3 + -4/5 + 2/5= 3/5 Was this answer helpful?

Answer:
Firstly group the rational numbers with same denominators
2/3 + 1/3 + -4/5 + 2/5
(2+1)/3 + (-4+2)/5
3/3 + -2/5
1/1 + -2/5
By taking LCM for 1 and 5 we get, 5
(1×5)/(1×5) + (-2×1)/(5×1)
5/5 + -2/5
Since the denominators are same can be added directly
(5-2)/5 = 3/5
Answer
2/3 + 1/3 + -4/5 + 2/5= 3/5
