Question

the sum of two numbers is -1/3.if one of the number is -12/3,find the other. step by step​

Answer 1

Answer:

n1 = x

n2 = -12/3

n1 + n2 = -1/3

n1 - 12/3 = -1/3

n1 = 11/3

Ans = 11/3

Answer 2

Answer:

lets the number be x

given that sum of 2 number is -1 / 3

therefore ,

a = - 12 / 3

b = x

c = - 1 / 3

$\frac{ - 12}{3} + x = \frac{ - 1}{3 } \\ x = \frac{ - 1}{3} - ( - \frac{12}{3} ) \\ x = \frac{ - 1 + 12}{3} \\ x = \frac{11}{3}$

so

x = 11 / 3

hope it help
