Answer:
The fraction is 3/4.
Explanation:
Given that :
Numerator + Denominator = 7
Denominator = 7 - Numerator
Let the Numerator be x.
∴ Denominator = (7 - x)
Also, Four times the numerator is 8 less than 5 times the denominator.
⇒ 4(x) = 5(7 - x) -8
⇒ 4x = 35 -5x -8
⇒ 4x = 27 - 5x
⇒ 4x + 5x = 27
⇒ 9x = 27
⇒ x = 3
Therefore, the fraction is x / 7-x i.e. 3/4.
