Algebra.Com's Answer #795678 by VFBundy(438)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the reciprocal of the sum is 8/45, this means the sum was 45/8. 45/8 is not an integer, and it's impossible that the sum of two even integers (or ANY two integers) could equal anything but another integer. \n" ); document.write( " |
