Question

By what rational number should-8/39be multiplied to obtain-1/26?full formula

Answer 1

Answer:

3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required no. be x

Then,

-8/39×x=-1/26

-8x = -1/26×39

-8x = -39/26

x = -39/26÷-8

x = -39/26 × -1/8

x = 3/16

Answer 2

product : -1/26

one rational no. : -8/39

other rational no. : x

$\frac{ - 1}{26} = \frac{ - 8}{39} \times x$

-8x= -1/26 ×39

-8x= -39/26

x= -39/26÷-8

x= -39 /26×1/-8

x=3/16
