♠ Given,

One number $\sf{= \frac{1}{-6} = \frac{-1}{6}}$

Product $\sf{= \frac{-7}{8}}$



♠ So, let the other number be "x".



♠ Then,

$\sf{x \times \frac{-1}{6} = \frac{-7}{8}}$

$\sf{x = \frac{-7}{8} \times \frac{-6}{1}}$

$\sf{x = \frac{-7}{4} \times \frac{-3}{1}}$

$\sf{x = \frac{21}{4}}$



♥ •°• The second number is 21/4. ♥
