Question

In a fraction twice the numerator is 2 more than the denominator. If 3 is added to the numerator and to the denominator the new fraction is 2/3. Find the original number.urget plz ans fast

Answer 1

let the numerator be x
denominator = 2x-2
3 is added :-
Numerator= x+3
Denominator= 2x-2+3
=2x+1
x+3/2x+1=2/3
3(x+3)=2(2x+1)
3x+9=4x+2
3x-4x=2-9
-x=-7
x=7
Original Numerator = x = 7
Original Denominator = 2x-2
= 2(7)-2
= 14-2
= 12
Original Fraction = 7/12

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numerator be x

denominator = 2x-2

3 is added :-

Numerator= x+3

Denominator= 2x-2+3

=2x+1

x+3/2x+1=2/3

3(x+3)=2(2x+1)

3x+9=4x+2

3x-4x=2-9

-x=-7

x=7

Original Numerator = x = 7

Original Denominator = 2x-2

= 2(7)-2

= 14-2

= 12

Original Fraction = 7/12
