Question

what numbers should be added to -5/8 so as to get -3/2?​

Answer 1

Answer:

{\boxed{\boxed{\mathtt{To\: Find}}}}ToFind

⇝ \begin{gathered}-\frac{5}{8}\\\end{gathered}−85 + x = \begin{gathered}-\frac{3}{2}\\\end{gathered}−23

{\boxed{\boxed{\mathtt{Solution}}}}Solution

⇝ - 5/8 + x = -3/2

⇝ (- 5 + 8x ) / 8 = - 3/2

Cross Multiplying

⇝ ( - 5 + 8x ) × 2 =8 × (-3)

⇝ -10 + 16x = -24

⇝ 16 x = -24 + 10

⇝ 16x = - 14

Dividing by 2 both sides

⇝ 8x = -7

X = -7/8

Hence -7/8 will be added to -5/8 for getting -3/2 .
