Answer 2

★Solution :

Let the number be x

Therefore,

$x \times \frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{8} = 0 \\ \\ or \: \frac{x}{8} + \frac{3}{8} = 0 \\ \\ or \: \frac{x + 3}{8} = 0 \\ \\ or \: x + 3 = 0 \times 8 = 0 \\ \\ or \: x = 0 - 3 = - 3$

The number is --3

★Verification :

$- \frac{3}{8} + \frac{3}{8} \\ \\ = \frac{ - 3 + 3}{8} \\ \\ = \frac{0}{8} = 0$

Thanks :)
