Answer 1

Question :

The product of two numbers is 16/17 If one of the numbers is -2/5.find the other number.

Answer :

$product \: of \: two \: numbers \: = \frac{16}{17} \\ one \: number = \frac{ - 2}{5} \\ let \: the \: other \: number \: be \: x$

According to Question -

$\frac{ - 2}{5} \times x = \frac{16}{17} \\ x = \frac{16}{17} \div \frac{ - 2}{5} \\ \frac{16}{17} \times \frac{5}{ - 2} \\ \frac{40}{ - 17}$

Answer 2

Let the number be x

-2/5 × x = 16/17

x = 16/17 × 5/-2
