Answer 1

Answer:

denomination are same answer

Answer 2

Answer:

25/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the numerator and y be the denominator.

Hence the fraction is x/y.

 

Now according to question,  

the denominator of a fraction is greater than its numerator by 11.  

=> y = x + 11........................................(1)

if 8 is added to both its numerator & denominator, it becomes 3/4.

=> ( (x+8) / ( y+8) ) = 3/4

=> 4x - 3y = -8 .....................................(2)

Now substituting y from eq (1) to eq (2) , we get  

we get x = 25  

 

y= x+ 11

=> y = 25+11 = 36

Therefore the fraction is = x/y = 25 /36  

 

Answer : The required fraction is 25 / 36.
