Question

What must be subtracted from the product of -120 and 1/3 to get a difference of 13

Answer 1

Answer:

product = 120×1/3

= 40

let the number be subtracted be=x

Therefore

40-x = 13

x= 40- 13

x= 27

Ans ) 27

please mark me brainliest

if the number is -120

then

product = -120× 1/3

= -40

then the number that should be subtracted be=x

Therefore,

-40-x = 13

-×=40+13

-x = 53

x= -53

ans ) -53

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually I could not understand whether the number is 120 or -120

if you cross check the negative one

then( -120×1/3) - (-53)

-40- (-53)

-40+53

13
