Question

the product of two Rational numbers is -12 if one of the number is -8 find the Another

Answer 1

Hey buddy here is your answer :

Given that product of two rational numbers is -12

One of the no. is -8

Let the other no. be x

so -8 × x = -12

-8x = -12

x = -12 / -8

x = 12 / 8 = 3 / 2

So the other rational no. is 3 / 2

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:- Product of two rational numbers = - 12.

            One of the given rational numbers is - 8.

To Find:- The other rational number.

Solution:-

Let the other rational number be x.

It is given that the product of two rational numbers = - 12.

So we can write

(- 8) × x = - 12

⇒ x = ( - 12 ) ÷ ( - 8 )

⇒ x = 3/2

Therefore, the another rational number is 3/2 which is when multiplied by - 8 gives the result - 12.

To verify ( - 8 ) × 3/2 = ( - 4 ) × 3

                                 = - 12

Hence verified.
