Ответ:

а) \(\frac7{40}+\frac{11}{60}=\frac{21}{120}+\frac{22}{120}=\frac{43}{120}\).

б) \(\frac{27}{56}-\frac5{42}=\frac{81}{168}-\frac{20}{168}=\frac{61}{168}\).

в) \(\frac{11}{72}-\frac7{54}=\frac{33}{216}-\frac{28}{216}=\frac5{216}\).

г) \(\frac{16}{45}+\frac{17}{60}=\frac{64}{180}+\frac{51}{180}=\frac{115}{180}=\frac{23}{36}\).
