    Let the number be x. The other number is also x.

    Given the first number is 24.6 and sum is - 44.85

    24.6 + x + x = - 44.85

    Combine like terms:

    2x + 24.6 = - 44.85

    Add 24.6 on both sides:

    2x = - 44.85 - 24.6

    Evaluate Right Hand Side:

    2x = - 69.45

    Divide both sides by 2:

    x = - 34.725

    Answer: The two numbers are both - 34.725.
