Question

what number should be subtracted from -8/15 to get -5/6???​

Answer 1

Answer: 3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be subtracted = $x$

According to the question,

-8/15 - ($x$) = -5/6

-$x$ = -5/6 + 8/15

-$x$ = -25 + 16 / 30

-$x$ = -9/30

$x$ = 9/30

$x$ = 3/10

You can also do cross checking ,

-8/15 - 3/10

-16-9/30

-25 / 30

- 5 /6
