What should be subtracted from (-3/4) to get (5/6)?(a)(19/12) (b)(-19/12) (c)(1/12) (d)(-1/12)

Answer»

(b)(-19/12)

Because,

Let the missing number be X,

(-3/4) – (X) = (5/6)

By sending (-X) from the left hand side to the right side it becomes (X) and (5/6) from right hand side to left hand side it becomes (-5/6)

= (X) = (-3/4) – (5/6)

LCM of 4 and 6 is 12

(-3 × 3)/ (4×3) = (-9/12)

(-5×2) / (6×2) = (-10/12)

(X) = (-9-10)/12

(X) = (-19/12)
