The sum of the two numbers is (5/9). If one of the numbers is (1/3), find the other.

Answer»

Given sum of two numbers is (5/9)

And one them is (1/3)

Let the unknown number be x

x + (1/3) = (5/9)

x = (5/9) – (1/3)

LCM of 3 and 9 is 9

Consider (1/3) = (1/3) × (3/3) = (3/9)

On substituting we get

x = (5/9) – (3/9)

x = (5 – 3)/9

x = (2/9)
