There were some instances where you'd have to use the communicative property when adding something inside parentheses, and that usually turns the plus symbol into a...

Ah, so $$\frac{18}{25}$$ were just rewritten with their greatest common factors which are 3 and 5? Also, I still don't get why the plus in 3/4 (5/6(-18/25)+1/2) would turn into a minus. Am I missing a rule here?

Hey guys, I am seriously confused by this problem. 3/4 [ 5/6 ( -18/25 ) + 1/2 ] I would appreciate it if someone shows me the step by step process. Thanks in advance :)

Haha, it does get quite confusing so that makes sense. Thanks again!
