The product of two rational numbers is 12. If one of the numbers is (-16), then the other number (in its standard form) will be​

Answer 1

$\color{skyblue}{\star \large\underline{{\boxed{\sf\pink{Given:-}}}}}$

☆ Sum of 2 rational numbers = 12

☆ One of the number = -16

To Find :-

⋆ The other number

$\color{aqua}{\star \large\underline{{\boxed{\sf\orange{Solution:-}}}}}$

According to the question :-

$\sf \mapsto ( - 16 \times x)= 12$

$\sf \mapsto x = \large-\frac{12}{ 16}$

$\sf \mapsto x = \large-\frac{3}{4}$

${ \underline {\boxed {\pink{\sf \therefore The \: other \: number = -\frac{3}{4} }}}}$

Answer 2

$\huge{\mathtt{{\red{\boxed{\tt{\pink{\orange{Ques}\blue{tion :}}}}}}}}$

• The product of two rational numbers is 12. If one of the numbers is (-16), then the other number (in its standard form) will be

$\large{\underline{\underline{\textsf{\maltese{\red{ Given :-}}}}}}$

• Sum of two rational numbers = $\bold{12.}$

• One of the number = $\bold{ (-16)}$

$\large{\underline{\underline{\textsf{\maltese{\pink{ To find :-}}}}}}$

• The other number (in its standard form).

$\large{\underline{\underline{\textsf{\maltese{\purple{ Solution :-}}}}}}$

${\large{{\implies\sf{\pmb{( - 16 \times x) = 12}}}}}$

${\large{{\implies\sf{\pmb{x = - \frac{12}{16} }}}}}$

${\large{{\implies\sf{\pmb{x = - \frac{3}{4} }}}}}$

$\bold{∴}$ The other number (in its standard form) will be ${{{\sf{\pmb{-}{\frac{3}{4}}}}}}$.
