Answer

The sum of 37\dfrac{3}{7} and 514\dfrac{-5}{14}

37+514\dfrac{3}{7} + \dfrac{-5}{14}

LCM of 7 and 14 is 2 x 7 = 14

=3×27×2+5×114×1=614+514=6+(5)14=114= \dfrac{3 \times 2}{7 \times 2} + \dfrac{-5 \times 1}{14 \times 1}\\[1em] = \dfrac{6}{14} + \dfrac{-5}{14}\\[1em] = \dfrac{6 + (-5)}{14}\\[1em] = \dfrac{1}{14}

Dividing the sum of 37\dfrac{3}{7} and 514\dfrac{-5}{14} by 12-\dfrac{1}{2}

114÷12=114×21=1×214×1=214=17\dfrac{1}{14} ÷ -\dfrac{1}{2}\\[1em] = \dfrac{1}{14} \times -\dfrac{2}{1}\\[1em] = -\dfrac{1 \times 2}{14 \times 1}\\[1em] = -\dfrac{2}{14}\\[1em] = -\dfrac{1}{7}

On dividing the sum of 37\dfrac{3}{7} and 514\dfrac{-5}{14} by 12-\dfrac{1}{2} we get 17-\dfrac{1}{7}.
