Question

The product of two rational numbers is -26.If one of the numbers is -3,what is the oothe number?

Answer

Let the first number be (-3)

And the second number be "x"

According to the question,

Product of the two numbers = (-26)

=> (-3) × x = (-26)

=> -3x = -26

=> -x =$\large \frac{-26}{3}$

=>$\cancel{ -}x = \large \frac{\cancel{- }26}{3}$

=> x = 8.66666.

Therefore, the other rational number is 8.6666.
