Question

in a fraction the numerator is 2 more than the denominator if 3 is added to the numerator and to the denominator the new fraction is 2 upon 3 find the original fraction

Answer 1

Let the denominator be x

Therefore, numerator will be (x+2)

The no. will be(x+2)/x

Given,

{(x+2)+3}/(x+3)=2/3

(x+5)/(x+3)=2/3

3(x+5)=2(x+3)

3x+15=2x+6

x=9 ; x+2=11

The original fraction is 11/9

Answer 2

hence the solution is ready
