What number should be subtracted from \(\frac{-3}{4}\) to get \(\frac{-1}{2}?\)

Answer»

Let the number subtracted be x

Then,

\(\frac{-3}{4}-\text{x}=\frac{-1}{2}\)

\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{-3}{4}-\frac{-1}{2}\)

\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{-3\times1-(-1)\times2}{4}\)

\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{-3+2}{4}\)

\(\Rightarrow\) \(\text{x}=\frac{-1}{4}\)
