Question

what number should be subtracted from the product of 2 upon 7 and 3 upon 8 to get minus 3 upon 7

Answer 1

Anwer is
2/7 multiply 3/8 - x = - 3/7
6/56 - x = - 3/7
X = 6/56+3/7
X= 30/56 answer

Answer 2

Answer:

The number should be subtracted from the product of $\frac{2}{7}$ and $\frac{3}{8}$  to get  $\frac{-3}{7}$ is   $\frac{15}{28}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The answer when a number is subtracted from the product of $\frac{2}{7}$ and $\frac{3}{8}$ is $\frac{-3}{7}$

Solution:

Let x be the required number

The product of  $\frac{2}{7}$ and $\frac{3}{8}$  is $\frac{3}{28}$

Then by the given condition, we have

$\frac{3}{28}$ - x = $\frac{-3}{7}$

x = $\frac{3}{28} +\frac{3}{7}$

=$\frac{3+12}{28}$

= $\frac{15}{28}$

The number should be subtracted from the product of $\frac{2}{7}$ and $\frac{3}{8}$  to get  $\frac{-3}{7}$ is  $\frac{15}{28}$
