Question

what we will add to -5/8 to get -3/2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let's assume that we have to add 'x' to $\frac{-5}{8}$ to get $\frac{-3}{2}$

$x+\frac{-5}{8} =\frac{-3}{2}$

$x+\frac{-5}{8} =\frac{-12}{8}$

$x-\frac{5}{8} =\frac{-12}{8}$

$x=\frac{-12}{8} +\frac{5}{8}$

$x=\frac{-7}{8}$

Hence, $\frac{-7}{8}$ should be added to$\frac{-5}{8}$ to get $\frac{-3}{2}$

Hope it helps
