Answer»

Given:-

  • The sum of two rational NUMBER is -14/3.
  • One of the rational number is -4.

To FIND:-

  • Find the ANOTHER rational number .?

Solutions:-

  • Let the one rational number be y.

y = -4

  • Let the another number be x.

x + y = -14/3

  • One number = -4
  • Another number = x
  • Sum of two numbers = -14/3

=> x + y = -14/3

=> x + (-4) = -14/3

=> x - 4 = -14/3

=> 3(x - 4) = -14

=> 3x - 12 = -14

=> 3x = -14 + 12

=> 3x = -2

=> x = -2/3

Another number = -2/3

Hence, the another rational number is -2/3.
