ALUE Page 1. What should be added to 3 /5+ 2/ 3 to get -4/15

​

Answer 1

Answer:

If we add -23/15 to 3 /5+ 2/ 3 then we get -4/15.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is added to $\frac{3}{5} + \frac{2}{3}$  then we get$\frac{-4}{15}$ .

$x + \frac{3}{5} + \frac{2}{3} = \frac{-4}{15}\\ x = \frac{-4}{15} - \frac{3}{5} - \frac{2}{3}$

LCM of 15,5, and 3 is 15.

$x = \frac{-4}{15} - \frac{3 \times 3 }{5 \times 3} - \frac{2\times 5}{3 \times 5}\\x = \frac{-4}{15} - \frac{9 }{15} - \frac{10}{15}\\x = \frac{-4 - 9 - 10}{15}\\x = \frac{-23}{15}$

So, the number is -23/15.
