lf the same integer is added to the numerator of fraction2/7and subtracted from the denominator, the fraction becomes 2.what is the integer.
Answers
Given :-
● If the same integer is added to the numerator of fraction 2/7 and subtracted from the denominator then fraction becomes 2
Solution :-
Let the integer be x
According to the question,
If the same integer is added to the numerator of fraction 2/7 and subtracted from the denominator then the fraction become 2
Now,
2 + x / 7 - x = 2
2 + x = 2 ( 7 - x)
2 + x = 14 - 2x
x + 2x = 14 - 2.
3x = 12
x = 12/3
x = 4
Hence, The value of integer is 4
Verification :-
2 + x / 7 - x = 2
Put the value of x
2 + 4 / 7 - 4 = 2
6/3 = 2
2 = 2
LHS = RHS
Hence, Verified
