Let us note down the given details

Sum of two numbers = -1/3

One of the number = -12/3

By using the formula,

Other number = sum of number – given number

= -1/3 – -12/3

Since the denominators are same we can subtract directly

= (-1+12)/3 = 11/3

∴ the other number is 11/3

Answer 2

Answer:

Let us note down the given details

Let us note down the given detailsSum of two numbers = -1/3

Let us note down the given detailsSum of two numbers = -1/3One of the number = -12/3

Let us note down the given detailsSum of two numbers = -1/3One of the number = -12/3By using the formula,

Let us note down the given detailsSum of two numbers = -1/3One of the number = -12/3By using the formula,Other number = sum of number – given number

Let us note down the given detailsSum of two numbers = -1/3One of the number = -12/3By using the formula,Other number = sum of number – given number= -1/3 – -12/3

Let us note down the given detailsSum of two numbers = -1/3One of the number = -12/3By using the formula,Other number = sum of number – given number= -1/3 – -12/3Since the denominators are same we can subtract directly

Let us note down the given detailsSum of two numbers = -1/3One of the number = -12/3By using the formula,Other number = sum of number – given number= -1/3 – -12/3Since the denominators are same we can subtract directly= (-1+12)/3 = 11/3

Let us note down the given detailsSum of two numbers = -1/3One of the number = -12/3By using the formula,Other number = sum of number – given number= -1/3 – -12/3Since the denominators are same we can subtract directly= (-1+12)/3 = 11/3∴ the other number is 11/3
