Question

The denominator of a fraction exceeds its numerator by 4. If the numerator and denominator are both increased by 3, the new fraction becomes 4/5. Find the original Fraction

Answer 1

HEYA!!!!!

Here is your answer :
__________________________

let the numerator be x

Denominator be x + 4

If the numerator and Denominator increased by 3 then,

The fraction = 4/5

ATP,

$\frac{x + 3}{x + 4 + 3} = \frac{4}{5} \\ \\ \frac{x + 3}{x + 7} = \frac{4}{5} \\ \\ 5(x + 3) = 4(x + 7) \\ \\ 5x + 15 = 4x + 28 \\ \\ 5x - 4x = 28 - 15 \\ \\ x = 13$

Therefore, the original fraction :


$\frac{x}{x + 4} = \frac{13}{17}$
