Question

A fraction has denominator 4 more than numerator. If 6 is added to numerator and 6 is subtracted from denominator the fraction is 11/3 Find the fraction​

Answer 1

Answer:5

Step-by-step explanation:

x+6/x+4-6 =  11/3

= x+6=11

=x+4-6=3

x=5

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the numerator be x

Let the denominator be (x+4)

Adding 6 to the numerator = (6+x)

Subtracting 6 from the denominator = (x+4-6)

= x-2

New fraction = 11/3

hence,

(6+x)/(x-2)=11/3

3(6+x) = 11(x-2)

18+3x = 11x-22

18+22 = 11x-3x

40 = 8x

x = 40/8

x= 5
