Answer 2

Answer:

$a \: = \frac{5}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be a.

According to Question ,

$- \frac{35}{8} \div a = - \frac{7}{2} \\ \\ \implies \: - \frac{35}{8} \times \frac{1}{a} = - \frac{7}{2} \\ \\ \implies \: \frac{1}{a} = - \frac{7}{2} \times - \frac{8}{35} \\ \\ \implies \: \frac{1}{a} = - \frac{ \cancel7}{ \cancel2} \times - \frac{ \cancel8}{ \cancel{35}} \\ \\ \implies \frac{1}{a} = \frac{4}{5} \\ \\ \implies 5 \times 1 = 4 \times a \\ \\ \implies \frac{5 \times1 }{4} = a \\ \\ \implies \frac{5}{4} = a \\ \\ \implies a = \frac{5}{4} \\ \\ \therefore \: a \: = \frac{5}{4}$

The required number is 5/4
