Answer 1

$\huge\mathfrak\blue{Answer:}$

Given:

• We have been given two numbers -2/3 and 14/36

To Find:

• The number that must be added to -2/3 to get 14/36

Solution:

Let the required number = x

According to the Question

$= > x + ( - \dfrac{2}{3} ) = \dfrac{14}{36}$

$= > x + ( - \dfrac{2}{3} ) = \dfrac{7}{18}$

$= > x - \dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{7}{18}$

$= > x = \dfrac{7}{18} + \dfrac{2}{3}$

Taking LCM we get

$= > x = \dfrac{7 + (2 \times 6)}{18}$

$= > x = \dfrac{19}{18}$

Hence 19/18 must be added to -2/3 to get 14/36
