MCQ
What should be added to $\frac{2}{5}$ to get $-\frac{3}{7}$:
  • A
    $\frac{4}{5}$
  • B
    $1$
  • $-\frac{29}{35}$
  • D
    $2$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$-\frac{29}{35}$

Let the required number be $x.$
$\text{x}+\frac{2}{5}=-\frac{3}{7}$
$\text{x}=\frac{3}{7}-\frac{3}{5}$
$\text{x} = -\frac{(15-14)}{35}$
$\text{x} = -\frac{15}{35}$
