Question

The product of two rational numbers is -40/3 If one of the numbers
12. Find the other.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

consider that number is x

x*12= -40/3

x=(-40/3)/12

x=(-40/3)*(1/12)

x= -40/36

x= -10/9

that number is (-10/9)

Answer 2

Answer:

let first number= X

second number = 12 (Given)

their product = -40 / 3

X × 12 = -40 / 3

X = -40 / 3 × 12

X = -40 / 36

divide both by 4

X = -10 / 9
