Question
Using suitable rearrangement and find the sum:
`-5 + 7/10 + 3/7 + (-3) + 5/14 + (-4)/5`
Solution
Here, `-5 + 7/10 + 3/7 + (-3) + 5/14+ ((-4)/5)`
= `-5 + (-3) + 7/10 + ((-4)/5) + 3/7 + 5/14`
= `-8 + (7 - 8)/10 + (6 + 5)/14`
= `-8 - 1/10 + 11/14`
= `(-560 - 7 + 55)/70`
= `(-512)/70`
= `(-256)/35`
