Question

The product of the two integers is -300. If one integer is 20 find the other integer


Answer with full process​

Answer 1

Given:-

• Product of two integers is -300

• One of the integer is 20

To Find:-

• Other integer

Solution:-

Let the value of other integer be x.

Now, according to our given scenario:

⇒ 20 × other integer = -300

⇒20 × x = -300

⇒ x = -300/20

⇒ x = -30/2

⇒ x = -15

The value of x is -15.

x = other integer

Therefore, the value of other integer is -15.

For Verification:-

Place x = -15 in equation,

⇒ 20 × x = -300

⇒ 20 × (-15) = -300

⇒ -300 = -300

Hence Verified!!

Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

• The product of two integers is - 300.
• One of the integers is 20.

To Find :-

• What is the other integers.

Solution :-

Let, the other integers be x

According to the question,

⇒ 20 × x = - 300

⇒ x = - 300 ÷ 20

➠ x = - 15

∴ The other integers is - 15 .

Let's Verify :-

↦ 20 × x = - 300

Put x = - 15, we get

↦ 20 × (- 15) = - 300

↦ 20 × - 15 = - 300

↦ - 300 = - 300

➥ LHS = RHS

Hence, Verified ✔
