is -6 and one of them is -7/2
then the other number is​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given Sum of two rational numbers = -6

One number = -7/2

Let the other number be = X

Sum = X + (-7/2) = -6

X - 7/2 = -6

2X - 7 = - 6* 2

2X = -12 + 7

2X = - 5

X = -5/2

Another number = x = -5/2

Verification :-

-5/2 -7/2 = -5-7

2

-12/2 = -6
