(1/-2-3/4 of -8/15) so that the sum is the product of -7/50 and 1 1/14
​

Answer 1

Answer:

-3 should be added to (1/-2-3/4 of -8/15) so that the sum is the product of -7/50 and 11/14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be add to (1/-2-3/4 of -8/15)

first multiply 1/-2 by -1/-1 = -1/2

So, x + (-1/2 - 3/4 * -8/5) = -7/50 * 11/14

x + (1*2 - 4*1 /4 ) * -8/5 = -11/100

x + (-2 -4/4) * -8/5 = -11/100

x + (-6/4 * -8/5) = -11/100

x + 4/5 = -11/100

x = -11/100 - 4/5

x = -11 * 1 -4 * 20 /100

x = -11 - 80 /100

x = -15/5

x = -3
