Fraction:

Let x be one fraction.

Let y be another fraction.

From questions, y = x + 9

Now adding 7 on both numerator and denominator, we get,

\bold{\frac{x+7}{y+7}=\frac{7}{10}}

On substituting y equation, we get,

\bold{\frac{x+7}{x+9+7}=\frac{7}{10}}

\bold{\frac{x+7}{x+16}=\frac{7}{10}}

\bold{10 x+70=7 x+96}

\bold{3 x=26}

Thus, the value of x is:

\bold{x=\frac{26}{3}}

Now,

\bold{y=\frac{26+27}{3}}

The value of y is:

\bold{y=\frac{53}{3}}

Now, the original fraction is

\bold{\frac{x}{y}=\frac{\left(\frac{26}{3}\right)}{\left(\frac{53}{3}\right)}}

\bold{\therefore\frac{x}{y}=\frac{26}{53}}
