Step-by-step explanation:

from the given information, we get that one term is -5/8 and their product is equal to 20/7

now,

-5/8 x another number = 20/7

the number= 20/7 x -8/5 (we take the inverse of the number as when it comes on the other side of the equal to, we should divide but by taking the inverse of the number we are multiplying it.)

number is equal to = -32/ 7

now let us verify it if it is correct or not.

-5/8 x -32/7 = 160/56

                    = 80/ 28

                    = 40/ 14

                    = 20/7 which is the product

so i hope this has helped you and if it did please mark me as brainliest.
