Question

the sum of two rational number is -8.if one of them is -11/25,find the other number​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

The sum of two rational number is -8.

One of them is -11/25.

To find:-

Find the other number ?

Solution:-

Given that:

Let the other number be X

Given number = -11/25

Their sum = X+(-11/25)

According to the given problem

The sum of the two numbers = -8

=> X+(-11/25)= -8

=> X -(11/25) = -8

=>X = -8+(11/25)

=>X=[(-8×25)+11]/25

=> X = (-200+11)/25

=>X=-189/25

The other number = -189/25

Answer:-

The other number for the given problem is

-189/25

Check:-

The sum of the two numbers

=>(-11/25)+(-189/25)

=>(-11-189)/25

=>-200/25

=>-8

The sum of the two numbers = -8
