Question

The sum of two rational numbers is -7 if one of the rational numbers is minus 11 upon 3 find the other

Answer 1

Let the other number be, x

$x-\frac{11}{3}$= -7

$x= -7+ \frac{11}{3}$

$x= \frac{-21}{3} +\frac{11}{3}$  {After finding LCM, multiply -7/1 with 3 and then u will get -21/3}

$x=\frac{-10}{3}$

The other number is -10/3.
