Answer 2

Answer:

5/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required number be x.

(7/-8) - x = (-13/12)

-x = (-13/12) - (7/-8) {LCM of 8 & 12 is 24}

-x = (-26/24) - (-21/24) {(21/-24) *(-1/-1) = (-21/24) this is because denominator cannot be negative}

=> {(-26) - (-21)/24}

=> {(-26+21)/24}

=> (-5/24)

-x = (-5/24)

x = (-5/24)*(-1)

x = 5/24

hope this helps.
