Answer:
C.) -7/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To subtract fractions, we need to have common denominators. So first, we will change -1 1/5 to -6/5.
Now we will change the denominator of both -6/5 and 1/2 to 10.
We now have:
5/10 and -12/10
5-12=-7
So the answer would be -7/5
If we want to use the number line, we would first find 5/10 (1/2) on the graph and count down (to simulate subtraction) 12 units since we are subtracting by 12. :))
