Hello friend.......

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️✳️

Let x be added to -5/16 to get 7/24.

-5/16 + x = 7/24

x= 7/24 + 5/16

x= 29/48.

So 29/48 should be added to -5/16 to get 7/24.

Answer:

29/48 should be added to -5/16 to get 7/24.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let x should be added to -5/16 to get 7/24.

Hence, we can write:

-5/16 + x = 7/24

by taking -5/16 in the right hand side of the above equation, we can write

⇒ x  =  \frac{7}{24}   -   (\frac{-5}{16})

⇒ x  = \frac{7}{24}   +  \frac{5}{16}  .................................................(i)

  • L.C.M of 24 , 16 :

24 = 2×2×2×3

16 = 2×2×2×2

  • so, the L.C.M of 24 and 16 = 2×2×2×2×3 = 48
  • From equation (i) we can write:

  x  = \frac{7 * 2}{24 * 2}  +  \frac{5 * 3}{16 * 3}

⇒ x  = \frac{14}{48} + \frac{15}{48}  

⇒ x = \frac{14 + 15}{48}

⇒ x = \frac{29}{48}

  • Hence, we can say that , 29/48 should be added to -5/16 to get 7/24.
