Question

What should
be added -5/8
to
get
a-312​

Answer 1

Answer:

hey genius ! hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number [which is to be added ] be x

-5/8 + x = -312

x = -312 + 5/8 [ shift -5/8 to rhs which becomes +5/8]

x = [-312(8) +5 ] /8    {LCM}

x = [-2496+5] /8

therefore , x = [-2491/8] OR x = 311.275

Thank you, GOOD LUCK !
