Pls can u solve these sums with explanations??

5. Find five rational numbers between -3/8 and 1/9.

6. The sum of two rational numbers is -2. If one of the numbers is -14/5, find the other.

7. What number should be added to -5/8 so as to get -3/2?

8. What number should be subtracted from -2/3 to get -1/6?

9. Is the difference of two rational numbers a rational number?

10. What is the negative of a negative rational number?

6. Suppose other rational number is x.
one of the number = -145
Sum of the numbers = x+-145 = -2
x-145 = -2x = -2+145 = -10+145 = 45
Therefore the required rational number is 45.
7. Suppose the required number to be added is x.
So we have;
x+-58 = -32x-58 = -32x = 58-32 x = 5-128 = -78
Therefore the required number is -78.
