Let the required number be x.

A.T.Q,

$x \times ( - 12) = - 8 \\ \\ = > x = - 8 \div ( - 12) \\ \\ = > x = - 8 \times \frac{ - 1}{12} \\ \\ = > x = \frac{2}{3}$

$Hence, \: \: the \: \: required \: \: number \: is \: \frac{2}{3}$

$Let \: \: the \: \: another \: \: no \: \: be \: x.$

$A.T.Q,$

$x \times ( - 8) = - 12 \\ \\ = > x = - 12 \div ( - 8) \\ \\ = > x = - 12 \times \frac{ - 1}{8} \\ \\ = > x = \frac{3}{2}$

$\\ Hence, \: \: the \: \: another \: \: no \: is \: \frac{3}{2}$
