Answer:
the answer is 31/35
Step-by-step explanation:
-2/7+x=3/5
x=3/5-(-2/7)
x=3/5+2/7
Now we will make the denominators equal to add them
3/5*7/7=21/35, 2/7*5/5=10/35
21/35+10/35=31/35
Now if we add them then we will have to convert -2/7 so
-2/7*5/5=-10/35 and if we add them the answer is -10/35+31/35=21/35
If we further simplify and convert 21/35 into it's simpler form we get 3/5 and that's the end result
Hope this makes it clear
