Question

The denominator of a fraction is 4 more than twice the numerator.When both the numerator and denominator are decreased by 6,then the denominator becomes 12 times the numerator.Find the fraction​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the numerator be x and denominator be 2x +4.

Fraction is x/(2x +4)

when both r decreased by 6,

numerator becomes = x-6

and denominator becomes = 2x +4-6=2x-2

Denominator becomes 12 times the numerator

2x-2=12(x-6)

2x-2=12x-72

70=10x

x = 7

Fraction is x/2x +4=7/18

Answer 2

Answer:

Fraction is x/(2x +4)

when both r decreased by 6,

numerator becomes = x-6

and denominator becomes = 2x +4-6=2x-2

Denominator becomes 12 times the numerator

2x-2=12(x-6)

2x-2=12x-72

70=10x

x = 7

Fraction is x/2x +4=7/18
