Question

(21) 3
The sum of two rational numbers is –3. If one of the numbers is
-14/5
find the other number​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rational number be x

According to the given condition,

x + (-14/5) = -3

x - 14/5 = -3

x = -3 + 14/5

x = -3/1 + 14/5

x = -3/1 (×5) + 14/5

x = -15/5 + 14/5

x = -1/5

Therefore,

The other number is -1/5
