Question

What number should be subtracted from -3/4 so as to get 5/6?

Answer 1

Let the number which is subtracted from -3/4 be 'x'

ATQ

-3/4-x=5/6

=> -x = 5/6+3/4

=> -x = 19/12

=> x = -19/12 {ANS}

Answer 2

The difference of two numbers =5/6

let be the second number =x

the first number=-3/4

so,

-3/4-x 5/6

-x+=5/6 +3/4

-x=. 18+20 /24

-x=38/24

- x=.19 /12

x=-19/12
