Solution

By substituting 7/12 with 1

= -4+3x = 5
3x = 5+4
3x = 9
x= 9/3
x=3

Hence, correct option is (d) x = 3

By what number should (-6)-1 be multiplied so that the product becomes 9-1?
  • a)
    -1/3
  • b)
    2/3
  • c)
    -2/3
  • d)
    1/3
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Solution:

To find the value of the unknown number, we can use the following equation:

(-6) - 1 = x(9 - 1)

Simplifying the right-hand side of the equation, we get:

(-6) - 1 = x(8)
-7 = 8x

Dividing both sides by 8, we get:

x = -7/8

Therefore, the correct answer is option C, -2/3.
