What number would make the expression −89+[?]−g equivalent to −g?

Question

-9/8

-8/9

8/9

9/8

Answer 1

To make the expression −89+[?]−g equivalent to −g, we need to find the number that, when added to -89 and then subtracted from that sum, equals 0.

Let's set up the equation:
-89 + [?] - g = -g

Adding g to both sides:
-89 + [?] = 0

To find the missing number (represented by [?]), we need to add 89 to both sides:
[?] = 89

Therefore, the number that would make the expression −89+[?]−g equivalent to −g is 89.

So, the correct answer is 89.

Answer 2

so the answer is 8/9

Answer 3

Apologies for the misunderstanding. Let's correct the previous response.

To make the expression −89+[?]−g equivalent to −g, we need to find the number that, when added to -89 and then subtracted from that sum, equals -g.

Let's set up the equation:
-89 + [?] - g = -g

Subtracting -g from both sides:
-89 + [?] = 0

To find the missing number (represented by [?]), we need to add 89 to both sides:
[?] = 89

Therefore, the number that would make the expression −89+[?]−g equivalent to −g is 89.

Since the options provided are numerical fractions, the closest fraction to 89 would be 89/1, or 89. Therefore, the answer is 89/1, or 89.
