Rewrite both fractions so they have a common denominator:
-3/6 = -21/42
-5/7 = -30/42
Now you have -21/42 - 30/42
Now subtract to get:
-51/42 which reduces to -17/14 = -1 3/14
The simplification of the expression is,-17/14. The simplification is done by applying the mathematical operation step by step.
Simplification usually entails doing out the expression's pending processes.
