Answer 1

Answer: The rational number is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the denominator be x. Then,

$\frac{x-2}{x}$

Now if we subtract the numerator and the denominator from 1 then we get,

$\frac{x-2-1}{x-1}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{x-3}{x-1}$ = $\frac{1}{2\\}$

Now multiply both the equations by 2. We get,

$\frac{2(x-3)}{x-1}$ = 1

Now multiply both sides by x-1. We get,

2(x-3) = x-1

2x - 6 = x-1

Subtracting both sides by x, We get

2x - 6 - x = -1

x - 6 = -1

Now adding 6 on both sides we get,

x - 6 + 6 = -1 + 6

x = 5

Hope this was what you wanted.
