Question

What number should be added to $\frac{-5}{6}$ to get $\frac{3}{2}$?

• A. $\frac{-7}{3}$
• B. $2\frac{1}{3}$
• C. $\frac{7}{3}$
• D. $\frac{-8}{3}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\frac{7}{3}$

Let number be x

$\frac{-5}{6}+x=\frac{3}{2}$

$x=\frac{3}{2}+\frac{5}{6}=\frac{3\left(3\right)+5}{6}=\frac{14}{6}=\frac{7}{3}$
