Question

The denominator of a fraction is 1 more
than double the numerator. On adding 2 to
the numerator and subtracting 3 from the
denominator, we obtain 1. Find the original
fraction.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

let numerator be x

according to the question

(x/(1+2x))

after adding 2 to the numerator and subtracting 3 from the denominator

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

(x+2)/(2x-2)=1

x+2= 2x-2

2+2= 2x-x

x= 4

therefore the original fraction will be

(4)/(2*4+1)

= 4/9
