Answer 1

◆Answer◆

Let the unknown number be 'x'

Given:

Sum of two integers is (-25)

One of the number is (-30)

To find:

The other number

Solution:

x + (-30) = (-25)

x = (-25) + 30

(As -30 is being transposed to the R.H.S the negative sign will become positive)

x = 5

Therefore, the other number is 5

5 + (-30) = (-25)
