Let x be the other number.

$\implies \: \dfrac{ - 3}{5} - x = - 2 \\ \\ \implies \: \dfrac{ - 3}{5} + 2 = x \\ \\ \implies \: \dfrac{ - 3 + 10}{5} = x \\ \\ \implies \: \dfrac{7}{5} = x$

Other rational number = 7/5.

NOTE:

• This type of question can be solved by supposing the number be x or any variable.
• Then find the expression according to the questions.
• Then Find the value of the variable.
