= 1

= - 1 + \frac{2 \cdot 1 ^{3}}{3} - \frac{1 ^{5}}{5}

Simplify

- 1 + \frac{2 \cdot 1 ^{3}}{3} - \frac{1 ^{5}}{5} : - \frac{8}{15}

- 1 + \frac{2 \cdot 1 ^{3}}{3} - \frac{1 ^{5}}{5}

Apply rule

1^{a} = 1

1^{3} = 1, 1^{5} = 1

= - 1 + \frac{2 \cdot 1}{3} - \frac{1}{5}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 1 = 2

= - 1 + \frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{5}

Convert element to fraction:

1 = \frac{1}{1}

= - \frac{1}{1} + \frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{5}

Adjust Fractions based on the LCM

Multiply each numerator by the same amount needed to multiply its

corresponding denominator to turn it into the LCM

15

For

\frac{1}{1} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

15

\frac{1}{1} = \frac{1 \cdot 15}{1 \cdot 15} = \frac{15}{15}

For

\frac{2}{3} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

5

\frac{2}{3} = \frac{2 \cdot 5}{3 \cdot 5} = \frac{10}{15}

For

\frac{1}{5} :

multiply the denominator and numerator by

3

\frac{1}{5} = \frac{1 \cdot 3}{5 \cdot 3} = \frac{3}{15}

= - \frac{15}{15} + \frac{10}{15} - \frac{3}{15}

Since the denominators are equal, combine the fractions:

\frac{a}{c} \pm \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \pm b}{c}

= \frac{- 15 + 10 - 3}{15}

Add/Subtract the numbers:

- 15 + 10 - 3 = - 8

= \frac{- 8}{15}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{8}{15}

= - \frac{8}{15}
