Answer 1

Answer:-

(i)5

(ii) (-7)

(iii) (-9)

(iv) (-27)

Answer 2

Answer:

(i.) 5       (ii.) -7      (iii.) -9        (iv.) -27

Step-by-step explanation:

(i.) given that,

____ × (-12) = -60        

let the number in the blank be ‘x’

⇒(x) × (-12) =-60

⇒ x = -60/-12 ⇒ x = 5

∴ 5 × (-12) = -60

(ii.) 5 ×     = -35

let blank be ‘x’

⇒ 5× (x) = -35

⇒5x = -35 ⇒ x = -35/5

⇒ x = -7

∴5 × -7 = -35

(iii.) (-8) ×        =72

let blank be ‘x’

⇒(-8) × (x) =72

⇒-8x=72

⇒x = -9

∴(-8) × (-9) = 72

(iv.)       ÷ -3 = 9

let the blank be ‘x’

⇒x -3 =9 ⇒ x/-3 = 9

⇒x = 9(-3)

⇒x = -27

∴-27 -3 = 9
