The sum of two numbers is (– 4/3). If one of the numbers is -5, find the other.

Answer»

Given sum of two numbers = (-4/3)

One of them is -5

Let the required number be x

x + (-5) = (-4/3)

LCM of 1 and 3 is 3

(-5/1) = (-5/1) × (3/3) = (-15/3)

On substituting

x + (-15/3) = (-4/3)

x = (-4/3) – (-15/3)

x = (-4/3) + (15/3)

x = (-4 + 15)/3

x = (11/3)
