Question

The denominator of a fraction is greater than the numerator by 6. If the numerator is increased by 15 and the denominator is decreased by 1, the number obtained is 1/2.Find the fraction. Please help​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{35}{29}$

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numerator be x & let the denominator be y

ATQ,

y=x+6 -----(i)

$\frac{x+15}{y-1}$=$\frac{1}{2}$

2x+30=y-1

2x+30=(x+6)-1   (from eq(i) )

2x+30=x-5

x=-35

y=-29

therefore the fraction is $\frac{35}{29}$   ANS
