Question

A fraction is such that if the numerator is multiplied by 2 and the denominator is increased by 2
we get 5/4. But if the numerator is increased by 1 and the denominator is doubled, we get 1/2
Find the fraction​

Answer 1

2x/y+2 = 5/4

☆ 8x = 5y + 10 -----1

x+1/2y = 1/2

☆ 2x + 2 = 2y 》 x + 1 = y ---2

Solving 1 and 2

we get x=5 and y=6
