Solve 2-2/3(-1)

$$2- \frac{ 2 }{ 3 } (-1)$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{8}{3}\approx 2.666666667$$

Solution Steps

Multiply \frac{2}{3} and -1 to get -\frac{2}{3}.

$$2-\left(-\frac{2}{3}\right)$$

The opposite of -\frac{2}{3} is \frac{2}{3}.

$$2+\frac{2}{3}$$

Convert 2 to fraction \frac{6}{3}.

$$\frac{6}{3}+\frac{2}{3}$$

Since \frac{6}{3} and \frac{2}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{6+2}{3}$$

Add 6 and 2 to get 8.

$$\frac{8}{3}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2 ^ {3}}{3} = 2\frac{2}{3} = 2.6666666666666665$$
