Question

divide the sum of 5/6 and minus _4/5 by their product

Answer 1

Given: Two rational numbers:  5/6 and -4/5

To find: Divide the sum by their product.

Solution:

• Now we have given two rational numbers:  5/6 and -4/5.

• So, sum of the given rational numbers is:

           5/6 + (-4/5)

           5/6 - 4/5

           ( 25 - 24 ) / 30

           1 / 30

• Now product of the given rational numbers is:

           5/6 x (-4/5)

           4/6

           2/3

• Now sum / product is:

           1/30 ÷ 2/3

           3 / 60

           1/20

Answer:

          So the answer is 1/20

Answer 2

Here is your answer

Sum of the rational numbers = 5/6+-4/5

= 25-24/30 = 1/30

Product = 5/6*(-4/5)

= -20/30 = -2/3

Sum/ product = 1/30 divided by -2/3

= 1/30*-3/2 = -3/60 = -1/20

Answer = -1/20
