Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{a+n}{b+n}$ will be greater.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we add a natural number in both numerator and denominator of a fraction $\frac{a}{b}$,

Then, there are two cases,

Case 1 :

$\frac{a+n}{b+n} > \frac{a}{b}$

If a < b,

Example :

$\frac{3}{4} < \frac{4}{5}$

Case 2 :

$\frac{a+n}{b+n} < \frac{a}{b}$

If a > b,

Example :

$\frac{4}{3} < \frac{5}{4}$
