Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, change 2 1/3 into an improper fraction.

2 1/3 --> 7/3

Substitute that value back into the equation

-5/3 + 7/3

At this point, you can rewrite the equation into:

7/3 - 5/3

Since they have the same denominator, just subtract the numerator's values.

2/3
