Answer:

[tex]\frac{5}{7}-(-\frac{1}{7})=\frac{6}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate :

[tex]\frac{5}{7}-(-\frac{1}{7})[/tex]

Solution:

Two negatives multiply to become a positive.

Thus, we can remove parenthesis by reversing the signs of the fraction by multiplying the negative outside.

⇒ [tex]\frac{5}{7}+\frac{1}{7}[/tex]

Since the denominators are same for both fractions, so we simply add the numerators.

⇒ [tex]\frac{5+1}{7}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{6}{7}[/tex]  (Answer)
