(-2 1/6) - (2/3) x (-1/4) ASAP PLEASE
Give explanation and step by step procedure!

The answer is -2

Steps:

Multiplying two negatives equals a positive. So, we change the minus sign after the first mixed number, and the negative sign in front of 1/4 and change it to a plus sign. Or, just saying that two negatives equal a positive, and we just convert them two to a plus sign. The equation changes to: -2 1/6 + 2/3 x 1/4

Then, reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 2, which is the numerator 2 and denominator 4. Reduce those two parts and you get -2 1/6 + 1/3 x 1/2

Next, I multiplied 1/3 and 1/2, which got me 1/6. Then add the two fractions -2 1/6 and 1/6 which equals 2.

I believed I explained it thoroughly, and hope this is helpful.
