The sum of two rational numbers is \(-3.\) If one of them is \(\frac{-10}{3}\) then the other one isA. \(\frac{-13}{3}\)B. \(\frac{-19}{3}\)C. \(\frac{1}{3}\)D. \(\frac{13}{3}\) |
Answer» Let the other number be x. Then, \(\frac{-10}{3}+\text{x}=\frac{-3}{1}\) \(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{-3}{1}-\frac{-10}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{-3\times3-(-10)\times1}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{-9+10}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{1}{3}\) |
