Answer 1

Answer:

53/6

To find the number, we need to subtract -5/6 from 8.

Write 8 as 8/1. LCM of 1 and 6 is 6. So our fractions are -5/6 and 48/6 (multiply by 6)

$\frac{48}{6} - \frac{ - 5}{6}$

=53/6

Thus, the number is 53/6.

Answer 2

Answer:

The other number is $=8\frac{5}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, one of the numbers is $-\frac{5}{6}$

According to the problem, the sum of the numbers is 8.

∴ the other number must be $[8 - (-\frac{5}{6} )]$  $=8 +\frac{5}{6}$  $=\frac{(8).(6) + 5}{6}$ $=\frac{53}{6}$ $=8\frac{5}{6}$
