Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{1}{4}$
Let $X$ should be added to $-\frac{5}{4}$ to get $-1.$
$-\frac{5}{4}+\text{x}=-1$
$\text{x}=-1+\frac{5}{4}$
To make the denominator same multiply and divide first term by $4.$
$\text{x}=-\frac{4}{4}+\frac{5}{4}$
$\text{x}=\frac{-4+5}{4}$
$\text{x}=\frac{1}{4}$
