Question

what number should be added to -5/6 so get _3/2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the required number be x.

x+(-5/6)=3/2

x=3/2+5/6

x=(9+5)/6

x=14/6

x=7/3.

Therefore the required number=7/3.

Answer 2

Answer:

If its 3/2 in the question:

Solve for x:

x - 5/6 = 3/2

Put each term in x - 5/6 over the common denominator 6: x - 5/6 = (6 x)/6 - 5/6:

(6 x)/6 - 5/6 = 3/2

(6 x)/6 - 5/6 = (6 x - 5)/6:

(6 x - 5)/6 = 3/2

Multiply both sides of (6 x - 5)/6 = 3/2 by 6:

(6 (6 x - 5))/6 = 6×3/2

6×3/2 = (6×3)/2:

(6 (6 x - 5))/6 = (6×3)/2

(6 (6 x - 5))/6 = 6/6×(6 x - 5) = 6 x - 5:

6 x - 5 = (6×3)/2

6/2 = (2×3)/2 = 3:

6 x - 5 = 3×3

3×3 = 9:

6 x - 5 = 9

Add 5 to both sides:

6 x + (5 - 5) = 5 + 9

5 - 5 = 0:

6 x = 9 + 5

9 + 5 = 14:

6 x = 14

Divide both sides of 6 x = 14 by 6:

(6 x)/6 = 14/6

6/6 = 1:

x = 14/6

The gcd of 14 and 6 is 2, so 14/6 = (2×7)/(2×3) = 2/2×7/3 = 7/3:
