Question

05.
The denominator of a rational number is greater than its numerator
by 4 If the numerator and denominator are both increased by 3,
the new fraction becomes 4/3. Find rational number.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numerator be x

and denominator be 4x

Acc to ques

x+3

_____ = 4/3

4x +3

now cross multiply

16x + 12 = 3x +9

16x-3x =12-9

13x= 3

x=3/13

Answer 2

Answer:

19/23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numerator be x

the denominator= x+4

According to condition

x+3/x+4+3=4/3

x+3/x+7=4/3

3(x+3)=4(x+7)

3x+9=4x+28

4x-3x=28-9

x=19

numerator=19

denominator=x+4=19+4=23

∴ the rational number is 19/23
