Question

the product of two integers is -180 if one of them is 12 find the other

Answer 1

Hi,

Let the other integer be x.

x multiplied by 12 = -180

=> 12x = -180

=> x = -15

Hope it helped :-)

Answer 2

Let other integer be P
then
P multiply 12 = -180
as 12 is in multiplication with ‘P’ So , if 12 will be transferred to R.H.S then, it will change it's sign to minus.
so,
P = -180 ÷ 12
P = -15
So, other integer is -15
