The denominator of A fraction is greater than it's numerator by 11. If 8 is added to both it's numerator and denominator, it becomes 3/4.find the fractio.
Answers
Answer:
The Fraction is 13/21.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Denominator of the Fraction is 11 more than its numerator.
If 8 is added to both numerator and Denominator the new Fraction = 3/4
To find :
The Fraction
Solution :
Consider the -
- Numerator as x
- Denominator as (x + 8)
★ (x + 11)/(x + 8) + 11 = 3/4
➾ x + 11/(x + 8) + 11 = 3/4
➾ 4(x + 11) = 3(x + 8 + 11)
➾ 4x + 44 = 3x + 24 + 33
➾ 4x + 44 = 3x + 57
➾ 4x - 3x = 57 - 44
➾ x = 13
★ Value of x + 8
➾ 13 + 8
➾ 21
Numerator = 13
Denominator = 21
.°. The Fraction is 13/21.
Verification :-
Add 11 to Numerator and Denominator and check if the Fraction results as 3/4.
★ (13 + 11)/(21 + 11) = 3/4
➾ 24/32 = 3/4
Divide it by 8
➾ 3/4 = 3/4
.°. The Fraction is 13/21.
