Question
What should be subtracted from $\frac{-2}{3}$ to obtain the nearest integer?
✓
Answer
Given rational number is $\frac{-2}{3}.$
We knoe that,nearest natural number of $\frac{-2}{3}$ is $-1.$
Let $x$ be subtracted to $\frac{-2}{3}$ to obtain $-1.$
Then, $\frac{-2}{3}-\text{x}=-1$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{-2}{3}+1=\frac{1}{3}$
So, we subtract $\frac{1}{3}$ from $\frac{-2}{3}$ to get the neartes integer.
