Question 127
The product of two rational numbers is $\frac{-14}{27}$. If one of the numbers be $\frac{7}{9}$, find the other.

Answer 1

Let the number be x
Given, one number $=\frac{7}{9}$
According to the question,
One number $\times$ Other number = Product of two numbers
$\frac{7x}{9}=\frac{-14}{27}x=\frac{-14}{27}\times \frac{9}{7}x=\frac{-2}{3}$
Hence, the other number is $\frac{-2}{3}$
