Answer:

6 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum is near 0, so the factors will be near √24, approximately 5. From your knowledge of multiplication facts, you know that 4×6 = 24.

The product will be negative when one of these factors is negative. Since you want a positive sum, the larger one must be positive.

The numbers are 6 and -4.

If I spend 3/4 of the

Answer:

1/8 of the original sum still remains.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you spend 3/4 of what you have, you have 1/4 left.

Now you spend 1/2 of that 1/4, so basically divide 1/4 by 2. When dividing fractions you can multiply the fraction by the reciprocal of the other fraction.

$\frac{1}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{2}{1}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$ * $\frac{1}{2}$

= 1/8

So I think 1/8 of the original sum still remains.

Hope this helped, please mark brainliest if possible. Have a nice day.
