Answer:
A. -(1 4/6 +2 1/6)
B. -3 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Real number properties let us factor out a factor of -1, and they let us rewrite 2/3 as 4/6. Using these, an equivalent expression is ...
-(1 2/3 +2 1/6) = -(1 4/6 +2 1/6)
__
B. The sum is ...
-((1+2) +(4/6 +1/6)) = -(3 +(4+1)/6) = -3 5/6
