\boxed{\boxed{\large\mathbf{\frac{16}{60} = \frac{4}{15}}}}
__________________________________

Let one of the number be \bf{x}

The other number = \frac{-7}{12}

Their sum = \mathsf{x + \frac{-7}{12}}
__________________________________

\underline{\textbf{A.T.Q,}}

\mathsf{x + \frac{-7}{12} = \frac{-19}{60}}

\mathsf{=> x = \frac{-19}{60} - (\frac{-7}{12})}

\mathsf{=> x = \frac{-19}{60} + \frac{7}{12}}

\mathsf{=> x = \frac{-19 + 35}{60} }

=> \boxed{\mathbf{ x = \frac{16}{60} = \frac{4}{15}}}

Hence, the other number is \mathbf{\frac{16}{60} \: or \: \frac{4}{15}}
