answer is 2/48
Step-by-step explanation:
let the no. be x and make equation according to question and answer will come
Answer:
The answer is 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
let the required number be 'x'
first case when the numerator and denominator of the fraction 3/4
increased by x
then the fraction formed
=(3+x)/(4+x)
second case when the numerator and denominator of the fraction 5/6 is decreased by x
then,the fraction formed
=(5-x)/(6-x)
according to question, first case and second case are same. so now
(3+x)/(4+x)=(5-x)/(6-x)
(6-x) (3 + x) = (4+x)(5-x)
18 + 6 x 3 x - x^2 = 20 - 4x + 5x - x^2
18 + 3 x 20 + x - x^2 + x^2
18+ 3 x 20 + x
3 x-x=20 - 18
(3+x)/(4+x)=(5-x)/(6-x)
(6-x) (3 + x) = (4+x) (5-x)
18+ 6 x 3 x - x^2 = 20 - 4x + 5x - x^2
18+ 3 x 20 + x - x^2 + x^2
18+ 3 x 20 + x
3 x-x=20 - 18
2x = 2
x = 1
