Answer 1

Answer:

Given:

the sum of two rational numbers is -16/9. If one of the numbers is -4/3, find the other

Solution:

$\large{\blue{Let \: the \: other \: number \: be \: 'x'}}$

The sum of two rational number = -16/9

One of the numbers = -4/3

The other rational number =

-4/3+x= -16/9

$\large{\purple{ = > x = \frac{ - 16}{9} - \frac{4}{3} }}$

$\large{\pink{ = > \frac{ - 16 -12 }{9} }}$

$\large{\red{ = > \frac{ - 28}{9} }}$

${\blue{ Hence,the \: other \: rational \: number}}$

${\blue{is \: \frac{ - 28}{9}. }}$
