fill in the blank equation

puzzledmaths:

what are 2 different solutions to this

-3-(_/_)=5

worded:
minus 3 minus open bracket an unknown number divided by an unknown number closed bracket equals 5

Add 3 to both sides

-(_/_) = 8

mult both sides by -1

( _/_) = -8

Does that make it easier? There are an infinite number of solutions. You can probably find 2 all by yourself.

Remember, a neg/pos = neg and pos/neg=neg SO exactly one of the numbers will have to be negative.

there is no number both are blank and i still don't get it

i have to add any two numbers that will make this

-3 - ( ? / ?) = 5

equation true

?= two unknown numbers

ok, how about -16/2 or 800/-100 or -72/9
