Question

what should be subtracted from -3/4 to get -1/2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: 6 must be subtracted from -3 to get -9.

We can always subtract an integer from a given integer and the result is again an integer.

Explanation:

Let us subtract 'x' from -3 to get -9. Let us now write this as an equation as:

-3 - x = -9

or, -3 - x + 3 = -9 + 3 (Adding 3 to both sides of the equation)

or, -x = -6

or, x = 6

Therefore, 6 must be subtracted from -3 to get -9.
