Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the other number be xx .

According to question.

\begin{gathered}x\times\dfrac{-20}{17}=\dfrac{14}{15}\\\\\\\implies x=\dfrac{14}{15}\div-\dfrac{20}{17}\\\\\\\implies x=\dfrac{14}{15}\times-\dfrac{17}{20}\\\\\\\implies x=\boxed{\bold{\dfrac{-119}{150}}}\end{gathered}

Answer 2

Answer:

First number = -20/17

Let the other number be 'x'

Product = 14/15

=>(-20/17)(x)=14/15

=>x=(14/15)÷(-20/17)

=>x=(14/15)×(-17/20)

=>x= -119/150
