The sum of two integers is $ -51 . $ If one of the integers is 14, find the other integer.


Given:

The sum of two integers is $-51$.

One of the integers is \( 14 \). 

To do:

We have to find the other integer.

Solution:

 Let the other integer be $x$.

Therefore,

$x+14=-51$

$x=-51-14$       

$x=-(51+14)$

$x=-65$

The other integer is $-65$.
