Combine like terms to create an equivalent
11/12 - 1/6q + 5/6q - 1/3

2/3q+7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

so first you have to notice that -1/6q and 5/6 both have q in common so you can combine those.

first you need to make sure you have common denominators and you do so you can continue solving

1. -1/6+5/6=4/6=2/3

so it would be 2/3q for that part of the equation. Then you have to combine 11/12 and -1/3

so you have to fine a common denominator which would be 12

11/12 stays the same and -1/3 becomes -4/12

you then solve and get 11/12-4/12 which is 7/12

If you put everything together then it becomes

2/3q+7/12

Hope this helps :)
