Answer:-

Let the numerator be "x" and denominator be "y".

The fraction => x/y.

Given:

Denominator is greater than the numerator by 5.

=> y = x + 5 -- equation (1)

And,

If 3 is added to numerator and denominator the fraction becomes 3/4.

According to the question,

 \frac{x + 3}{y + 3}  =  \frac{3}{4}  \\  \\

Substitute "y" value here,

 \frac{x + 3}{x + 5 + 3}  =  \frac{3}{4}  \\  \\  \frac{x + 3}{x + 8}  =  \frac{3}{4}

After cross multiplication we get,

4(x + 3) = 3(x + 8) \\  \\ 4x + 12 = 3x + 24 \\  \\ 4x - 3x = 24 - 12 \\  \\ x = 12

Substitute "x" value in equation (1).

y = x + 5

y = 12 + 5

y = 17

Therefore, the fraction x/y = 12/17.

Given,

  • A fraction whose denominator is greater than its numerator by 5.
  • When 3 is added to both numerator and denominator then it becomes 3/4.

To Find,

  • The Fraction

Solution,

⇒Suppose the numerator be a

And Suppose the denominator be b

Therefore ,

\boxed{\bold{\red{The \ Fraction = \frac{a}{b}}}}

According to the First Condition :-

  • A fraction whose denominator is greater than its numerator by 5.

\implies \boxed{\sf{b = a + 5}}

According to the Second Condition :-

  • When 3 is added to both numerator and denominator then it becomes 3/4.

\implies \sf{\dfrac{a + 3}{b + 3} = \dfrac{3}{4}}

\implies \sf{4(a + 3) = 3(b + 3)}

\implies \sf{4a + 12 = 3b + 9}

\implies \sf{4a - 3b = 9 - 12}

\implies \sf{4a - 3b = -3}

\implies \sf{4a - 3(a + 5) = -3}

(Put the value of b From the First Condition)

\implies \sf{4a -3a - 15 = -3}

\implies \sf{a = -3 +  15}

\implies \boxed{\sf{a = 12}}

Now Put the Value of a in First Condition :-

\implies \sf{b = a + 5}

\implies \sf{b = 12 + 5}

\implies \boxed{\sf{b = 17}}

Therefore,

\boxed{\sf{\purple{The \ Fraction = \dfrac{a}{b} = \dfrac{12}{17}}}}
