Question

the sum of two rational numbers is 8 . if one of the number is -5 / 6. find the other​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x+(-5/6)=8

x=8-(-5/6)

x=8/1 + 5/6

LCM of 1,6 is 6

so,

x=48/6+5/6

x=53/6

Answer 2

Answer:

53/6

Step-by-step explanation:

if two rational numbers taken as x and y.

then x+y=8

If one number,take x= -5/6

then, y=8-x

I. e, y=8-(-5/6)

=8+(5/6)

=(48+5)/6

y=53/6

the other number is 53/6.
