What should be subtracted from $-\frac{5}{4}$ to get $-1?$
  • $ -\frac{1}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{4}$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $-\frac{3}{4}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$ -\frac{1}{4}$

Let $X$ should be subtracted to $-\frac{5}{4}$ to get $-1.$
$-\frac{5}{4} –\text{ x }= -1$
thus $\text{x} = -\frac{5}{4} + 1$
$\text{x} = -5 + \frac{4}{4}$
$\text{x }= -\frac{1}{4}$
Hence, $-\frac{1}{4}$ Should be subtracted to $-\frac{5}{4}$ to get $-1.$
