numerator is increased by 17 and denominator is decreased by 1, the
number obtained is 3/2, find the fraction.​

Answer 1

Answer: So my friend the answer is 13/21

Step-by-step explanation:

So first

Let the numerator be y and denominator be x

So,

X-Y= 8.............(1)

NOW,

y+17/x-1=3/2

=>2y+34 = 3x-3

=>3x-2y= 37...............2

Now multiplying (1) with 3 we get

3x-3y=24............... (3)

Now subtracting (2) and (3)

Y= 13.....

So therefore x=21...

So the fraction in 13/21
