Question

the denominator of a fraction is 2 more than the numerator if one is added to each of the numerator and denominator of the fraction, then the fraction becomes 3/4 find the fraction​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the numerator be x and the denominator be y, then y=x+2. If we substract 1 from each, the value becomes 1/2 so x-1/y-1=1/2. We substitute y by x+2 in the second equality and we get eventually y=5, which implies that x=3. Hence, the original fraction is 3/5.

Answer 2

Answer:

2/1

Step-by-step explanation:

let numerator be x

and denominator be x+2

When 1 added is added to both numerator and denominator:

Numerator = x+1

Denominator = x+2+1 = x+3

After this, the resulting fraction is 3/4

Numerator : x+1 = 3.So, x=2

Denominator : x+3 = 4.So,x=1

Original fraction is 2/1
