Question

the sum of two numbers is -3 if one of them is -10/3 find the other one is​

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is=1

Let the no. be x

then,

x+(-10/3)=-3

-10/3=-3x

-10=-9x

x=1 (Ans.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer :-

• The other number is 1/3.

To find :-

• The other number.

Solution :-

Let the other number be "x".

• One of the numbers is -10/3.

It is given that :-

• When "x" is added to -10/3, we get -3.

Therefore,

$\longmapsto\tt\dfrac{ - 10}{ \: \: \: \: 3} + x = - 3$

$\longmapsto\tt x = - 3 - \dfrac{ - 10}{ \: \: \: \: 3}$

$\longmapsto\tt x = \dfrac{ (- 3 \times 3) - ( - 10 \times 1)}{3}$

$\longmapsto\tt x = \dfrac{ - 9 + 10}{ \: 3}$

$\longmapsto\tt x = \dfrac{1}{3}$

-----------------------------------------------------------

Verification :-

• To check our answer, let's add 1/3 and -10/3 and see whether their sum is -3.

$\longmapsto\bf\dfrac{ - 10}{ \: \: \: \: \: 3} + \dfrac{1}{3}$

$\longmapsto\bf\dfrac{ - 10 + 1 \: \: \: }{ \: 3}$

$\longmapsto\bf \dfrac{ - 9}{ \: \: \: 3}$

$\longmapsto\bf\dfrac{ - 3}{ \: \: \: 1}$

$\longmapsto\bf - 3$

The sum of -10/3 and 1/3 is -3.

Hence verified!
