Answer:
Take one of the rational number as 'x'
\x + 7/15 = - 32/45
x = - 32/45 - 7/15
Take LCM of 45 and 15
hence LCM = 45
x = - 32/45 - 7*3/15*3
The reason y we are multiplying both the numerator and denominator of the number 7/15 is because we need to make the denominator the same as the other number
therefore,
x = - 32/45 - 21/45
x = - 53/45
Hence the required number is - 53/45
