Given :-

  • If 1 is added in the numerator and denominator, then fraction becomes 4

  • If we substract 1 from both numerator and denominator then becomes 7.

To Find :-

  • The Original Fraction.

Solution :-

Let Numerator and Denominator of Original Fraction be :

  • Numerator = x

  • Denominator = y

So ,

\text{Original Fraction = } \frac{\text x}{\text y} \\

When 1 is added in the numerator and denominator :

\text{Fraction Becomes : } \frac{\text x +1}{\text y+1} \\

According To Question :

 \frac{\text x + 1}{\text y + 1}  = 4 \\

:\longmapsto\text x + 1 = 4(\text y + 1) \\

:\longmapsto\text x + 1 = 4\text y + 4 \\

:\longmapsto\text x - 4\text y = 4 - 1

:\longmapsto \bf x - 4y = 3 \:  \:  -  -  -  (1) \\

When 1 is subtracted from numerator and denominator :

\text{Fraction Becomes : } \frac{\text x -1}{\text y-1} \\

According To Question :

 \frac{\text x - 1}{\text y - 1}  = 7 \\

:\longmapsto\text x - 1 = 7(\text y - 1) \\

:\longmapsto\text x - 1 = 7\text y - 7 \\

:\longmapsto\text x - 7\text y = -7 + 1

:\longmapsto \bf x - 7y = -6 \:  \:  -  -  -  (2) \\

Subtracting (2) from (1) :

:\longmapsto3\text y = 9 \\

:\longmapsto\text y =   \cancel\frac{9}{3}  \\

\purple{ \Large :\longmapsto  \underline {\boxed{{\bf y = 3} }}}

Putting Value of y in (1) :

:\longmapsto\text x - 4 \times 3 = 3 \\

:\longmapsto\text x - 12 = 3 \\

:\longmapsto\text x = 3 + 12 \\

\purple{ \Large :\longmapsto  \underline {\boxed{{\bf x = 15} }}}

Hence,

\Large\underline{\pink{\underline{\frak{\pmb{Orginal\: Fraction =  \frac{15}{3} }}}}}

Question:

  • If 1 is added in the numerator and denominator, then fraction becomes 4 and if we subtract 1 from both numerator and denominator then fraction becomes 7, Find the fraction.

Answer:

  • The required fraction is 15/3.

Explanation:

Given that:

  • If 1 is added in the numerator and denominator, then fraction becomes 4.
  • If we subtract 1 from both numerator and denominator then fraction becomes 7.

To Find:

  • The fraction?

Solution:

  • Let the numerator of fraction be m and denominator of fraction be n. So, the fraction is numerator/denominator i.e, m/n.

According to the question,

  • If 1 is added in the numerator and denominator, then fraction becomes 4.

Therefore,

\sf \dfrac{m + 1}{n + 1} = 4

\sf m + 1 = 4(n + 1)

\sf m + 1 = 4n + 4

\sf m = 4n + 4 - 1

\bf\red{m = 4n + 3}\quad - - - (1)

Also,

  • If we subtract 1 from both numerator and denominator then fraction becomes 7.

Therefore,

\sf \dfrac{m - 1}{n - 1} = 7

\sf m - 1 = 7(n - 1)

\sf m - 1 = 7n - 7

\sf m = 7n - 7 + 1

\bf\purple{m = 7n - 6}\quad - - - (2)

From (1) and (2) we get,

\sf 4n + 3 = 7n - 6

\sf 7n - 4n = 3 + 6

\sf 3n = 9

\sf n = {\cancel{\dfrac{9}{3}}}

\bf\pink{n = 3}

Put n = 3 in (2) we get,

\sf m = (7\:\times\:3) - 6

\sf m = 21 - 6

\bf\green{m = 15}

Hence,

Numerator = m = 15

Denominator = n = 3

Fraction = m/n = 15/3

Let's Verify:

We know that,

\sf \dfrac{m - 1}{n - 1} = 7

Put m = 15 and n = 3 in above equation we get,

\sf \dfrac{15 - 1}{3 - 1} = 7

\sf {\cancel{\dfrac{14}{2}}} = 7

\sf 7 = 7

\bf\blue{LHS = RHS}

Hence, Verified ✔
