Question:
By what number should we multiply $\frac{-15}{28}$ so that the product may be $\frac{-5}{7}$ ?
Solution:
Let the other number be $\mathrm{x}$.
$\therefore \mathrm{x} \times \frac{-15}{28}=\frac{-5}{7}$
or $\mathrm{x}=\frac{-5}{7} \div \frac{-15}{28}$
or $\mathrm{x}=\frac{-5}{7} \times \frac{28}{-15}$
or $\mathrm{x}=\frac{4}{3}$
Thus, the other number is $\frac{4}{3}$.
