Question

The sum of two Integers is 65 . If one of the integers is -47 , find the other

Answer 1

The sum of two integers is 65 . One of them is - 47 .

Let the other be x .

So we get equation

x + ( - 47 ) = 65

》 x - 47 = 65

》 x = 65 + 47 (sign changes as the number is taken to RHS)

》 x = 112

So the other number is 112.
