Answer:
Numerator = 3
Denominator = 10
So, Fraction = 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
By Initial Consideration,
Numerator = x
Denominator = y
According to Condition,
y = x + 7 → (1)
x + 3/y + 3 = 6/13
[Cross Multiplying or Multiply (x + 3) by 13 and (y + 3) by 6
13 (x + 3) = 6 (y + 3)
13x + 39 = 6y + 18
13x - 6y = 18 - 39
13x - 6y = -21 → (2)
Substitute value of (1) in (2)
13x - 6y = -21
13x - 6(x + 7) = -21
13x - 6x - 42 = -21
13x - 6x = -21 + 42
7x = 21
x = 21/7
x = 3
Substitute value of x in (1)
y = x + 7
= 3 + 7
= 10
So, Numerator (x) = 3
Denominator (y) = 10
Fraction (x/y) = 3/10
