Question

by what rational number should -8/39 be multiplied to obtain 1/26​

Answer 1

Answer:

-3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number required be a. Then,

-8/39 × a =  1/26

Multiply -39/8 on both sides we get,            -8/39 x -39/8 = 1

a = 1/26 x -39/8

You can divide 26 and 39 by 13. We get,

a = 1/2 x -3/8 = -3/16
