Question

the sum of two number is -3/7 if one number is 2/5 find the other.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation :

Given,

• The sum of two numbers is -3/7
• One number is 2/5

So, we have to find the other number.

• So, now we subtract 2/5 from -3/7

$\frac{ - 3}{7} - \frac{2}{5} \\ = \frac{ - 3 - 2}{35 } \\ = \frac{3 + 2}{35} \\ = \frac{5}{35 } \\ = \frac{5 \div 5}{35 \div 5 } \\ = \frac{1}{7}$

Answer 2

Answer: -29/35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

x+2/5= -3/7

x= -3/7- 2/5

x= -15-14/35

∴x= -29/35
