Question

the sum of two rational numbers is -5 if one of the number is 2/3 find the other​

Answer 1

Answer:

-17/3

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

= 2/3 + x = -5

= x = -5 - 2/3 [ LCM = 3]

= x = (- 15 - 2)/3

= x = -17/3

Answer 2

Answer:

-17/3

Step-by-step explanation:

let the other number be x

2/3+x = -5

x = -5 -2/3

x= -5/1-2/3

now we will take the LCM for the same

x= -15-2/3

hence , x = -17/3

and x = other number

therefore , -17/3 is the required other number
