Answer:

I assume you mean your question to read this way:

The denominator of a rational number is less than the numerator by 5. If 5 is added to the numerator, the new number becomes 11/6. Find the rational number. Note: your English grammar needs as much help as your math!

D = N - 5

(N + 5)/D = 11/6

(N + 5)/(N - 5) = 11/6

6N + 30 = 11N - 55

5N = 85

N = 17

D = 12

The fraction of rational number is 17/12

Answer:

Let the numerator of the rational number be x.

Then denominator will be x + 8.

Further, according to question,

=> x+17/ x + 8-1 = 3/2

=> x+17/x-7 = 3/2

=> 2(x + 17) = 3(x-7)

=> x = 13✨
