Question

The denominator of the fraction is 1 more twice its numerator if 1 is added to numerator and the denominator respectively the ratio of numerator to denominator is 1:2 find the fraction

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE NUMERATOR OF THE FRACTION BE x

SO,

DENOMINATOR = (2x+1)

NOW,

A.T.Q.,

(x+1)/[(2x+1)+1] = 1/2

(x+1)/(2x+2) = 1/2

BY CROSS MULTIPLICATION METHOD,

2(x+1) = 1(2x+2)

2x+2 = 2x+2
