Question

Denominator of a fraction is 17 more than that of the numerator. Sum of denominator and numerator is 43.

Find the fraction​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the numerator be x and denominator be x+17.

Since, it is given that sum of numerator and denominator is 43.

==> x+x+17=43

==>2x+17=43

==>2x=43-17

==>x=26/2

==>x=13

Therefore, numerator=x=13 & denominator= x+17=30

Thus, the fraction is 13/30
