Answer:

No, the correct answer of [tex]-1\frac{3}{4}  + 1\frac{1}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{11}{12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is [tex]-1\frac{3}{4}  + 1\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

As we know that a mixed fraction[tex]a\frac{b}{c}[/tex] can be converted into proper or improper fraction as [tex]a\frac{b}{c}  = \frac{ac + b}{c}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]-1\frac{3}{4}  = \frac{(-1) (4)+ 3}{c}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{-4 + 3}{4}  =  \frac{-1}{4}[/tex]

and, [tex]1\frac{1}{6}  = \frac{(1) (6)+ 1}{6}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{6 + 1}{6}  =  \frac{7}{6}[/tex]

Hence, the simplified expression = [tex]\frac{-1}{4}  + \frac{7}{6}  = \frac{-1(3)  + 7(2)}{12}   = \frac{11}{12}[/tex]

or, [tex]-1\frac{3}{4}  + 1\frac{1}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{11}{12}[/tex]
