Question

what number should be added to -1/3 to get 2/5

Answer 1

Answer:

11/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

-1/3 + x = 2/5

x = 2/5+1/3

[LCM (3, 5) = 15]

x = 6/15 + 5/15

x= 11/15

Therefore, 11/15 should be added to -1/3 to get 2/5.

Hope it helps..

Answer 2

So,here is answer of your question,

as we all we know tht we can solve it in linear form.

ok here we will represent the number as x

let's solve

$x+\frac{-1}{3}=\frac{2}{5}$

=$x=\frac{2}{5}+\frac{1}{3}$

the denominator is 15 as lcm of 5/3 is 15

=$x=\frac{11}{15}$

ok so x is 11/15
