Answer:

  -12 47/60

Step-by-step explanation:

-(1 1/5) + (-8 3/4 -2 5/6) = -(1 + 8 + 2 + 1/5 + 3/4 + 5/6)

= -(11 + 12/60 +45/60 +50/60) . . . 60 is the LCD of 1/5, 3/4, 5/6

= -(11 + 107/60) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add the fractions

= -(12 47/60) = -12 47/60 . . . . . . . write as a mixed number
