Answer:
The other number is 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the unknown number be x
Translate the equation :
[tex] - \frac{4}{3} \times x = - \frac{16}{9} \\ - \frac{4}{3} x = - \frac{16}{9} \\ [/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex] - 4x \times 9 = 3 \times - 16 \\ - 36x = - 48[/tex]
Divide both sides by -36
[tex] \frac{ - 36x}{ - 36} = \frac{ - 48}{ - 36x} \\ x = \frac{4}{3} [/tex]
