Answer 2

To find : value of missing rational number  

Given : The product of two rational numbers is $\frac{-8}{9}$ and other number is $\frac{-4}{15}$

Solution :

• Let , missing rational number be $x$ .
• According to given condition we write as , $\frac{-4}{15} \times x = \frac{-8}{9}$
• Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method:

1. We will Identify the variables and constants in the given equation.
2. Then we differentiate the equation as LHS and RHS.
3. We take constants at RHS leaving variable at LHS.
4. Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required to find the value of $x$ .

• Therefore , we get

          $\frac{-4}{15} \times x = \frac{-8}{9}$

                $x = (\frac{-8}{9})\times (\frac{15}{-4} ) \\x = \frac{2\times 15}{9} \\x = \frac{10}{3}$

Hence, value of missing rational number is $\frac{10}{3}$ .
