Question

The sum of two intergers is 47.If one of the integers is -24,find the other.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Missing integer is $71$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : missing integer .

Given : The sum of two integers is 47. If one of the integers is -24 .

Solution :

• As per given data we know that the sum of two integers is $47$ . If one of the integers is $-24$.
• Let , missing number be $x$ .
• According to given condition we write as , $x+ (-24 ) = 47$
• Using transposition method we find the value of $x$ , by transposing constant at RHS and leaving variables at LHS .  
• After transposing we perform arithmetic operation such as addition to find the value of $x$ .

         $x+ (-24 ) = 47 \\\\x -24 = 47 \\\\x = 47+ 24\\\\x = 71$  

Answer 2

Answer:

The other number will be 71.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The sum of two intergers is 47, and one integer is -24.

We have to find the other integer.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The sum of two intergers is 47, and one integer is -24.

Let assume the other number will be x.

Then, from the given statement we can write:

$=>x+-24=47\\=>x=47+24\\=>x=71$

Then the other number is 71.
