Question

the product of two rational number is 35/126 if one of them is -9/60 , find the other

Answer 1

product=35/126
one number is -9/60
let the other number be y
y×-9/60=35/126
then y= 35/126÷-9/60 =50/-27
=-50/27

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is x = -50/27.

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number, in arithmetic, exists as a number that can be defined as the quotient p/q of two integers such that q ≠ 0. In addition to all the fractions, the set of rational numbers contains all the integers, each of which can be noted as a quotient with the integer as the numerator and 1 as the denominator.

Step 1

Let the other number be x

product = 35/126 can be simplified to 5/18 by dividing by 7

And -9/60 to -3/20

one number is -9/60

Step 2

-3/20 $*$ x = 5/18

-3x $*$ 18 = 20 $*$ 5

-54x = 100

-x = 100/54

x = -50/27

Therefore, the correct answer is x = -50/27.
