• The addend, the equal sign, and the sum are the three essential components of addition.

• Commutative addition has four major characteristics: associative, distributive, and additive identity.

Given:

The number which is subtracted from 5/8 to get -1.

To find:

we have to find the number that we subtract.

Solutions:

Let us take the number be X. we get,

$\frac{5}{8}$  - X = -1

- X = -1 -  $\frac{5}{8}$

- X =  $\frac{-13}{8}$

X =  $\frac{13}{8}$

Therefore the number which is subtracted from 5/8 to get -1 is $\frac{13}{8}$.
