Answer

79/40

Work Step by Step

We plug in the given values: $$ = \frac{2}{3}\frac{6}{5} - \frac{3}{5}\frac{-1}{4} + \frac{3}{4}\frac{6}{5} - \frac{1}{2}\frac{-1}{4}$$ We now multiply and create a common denominator: $$ = \frac{96}{120} + \frac{18}{120} + \frac{108}{120} + \frac{15}{120} \\ = \frac{79}{40}$$
