Question

The sum of two rational number is -4/5. If one of the number is-1/4, find the other number ?

Given

• One of the no's are $\frac{-4}{ \: \:5}$

To Find

Let us assume the the other number as x

Sum of x and -4/5 = -1/4

Equation

x + $\frac{ - 4}{ \: \: 5}$ = $\frac{ - 1}{ \: \: 4}$

x = $\frac{ - 1}{4}$ - $( \frac{ - 4}{5} )$

x = -1/4 + 4/5

LCM = 20

-1/4 = -5/20

-4/5 = -16/20

-5/20 - (-16/20)

-5/20 + 16/20

11/20

Answer 2

Answer:

the other number is 11/20
