Question

product of two rational numbers is 1. If one of them is 25/3 then the other number is:

Answer 1

Answer:

let the rational number beX

then.

25/3(X)=1

again

X=3/25

Answer 2

Solution:-

Let be one rational number be x

Second no. = 25/3

Product of both no. = 1

By the use of given data , form a equation

$\to \: \: x \times \frac{25}{3} \: \: = \: \: 1$

$\to \: 25 \times x \: = \: 3$

$\to \: \: x \: = \: \frac{3}{25}$

Value of second no is 3/ 25

Word problems can be tricky. Often it takes a bit of practice to convert the

English sentence into a mathematical sentence. This is what we will focus on here

With some basic number problems, geometry problems, and parts problems.

A few important phrases are described below that can give us clues for how to set

up a problem.

• A number (or unknown, a value, etc) often becomes our variable

• Is (or other forms of is: was, will be, are, etc) often represents equals (=)

x is 5 becomes x =5

• More than often represents addition and is usually built backwards,

writing the second part plus the first

Three more than a number becomes x + 3

• Less than often represents subtraction and is usually built backwards as

well, writing the second part minus the first

Four less than a number becomes x − 4
