Question

The sum of Two rational numbers is 8 if One of the number is 5)6 find the other number

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the other rational number be x

Given One of the numbers is -5/6

Sum of the two numbers is 8

⇒ x + (-5/6) = 8

⇒ x - 5/6 = 8

⇒ x = 8 +5/6

⇒ x = (48+5)/6 = 53/6

Check : x - 5/6 = 8

⇒ 53/6 - 5/6 = 8

⇒ 48/6 = 8

⇒ 8 = 8

Therefore , L.H.S = R.H.S .
