PLEASE HELP QUICKLY!! Tommy writes −4 1/4 as a fraction using the same method he knows for positive mixed numbers. His work is shown: Multiply the whole number by the denominator: −4 ⋅ 4 = −16

Add the numerator: −16 + 1 =− 15

Write this number over the original denominator: −4 1/4 = −15/4

Does this method work to correctly write −4 1/4 as a fraction?

Complete the statements below to answer the question.

Tommy's method [does OR does not] work.
