Question

the numerator of a fraction is 5 less than the denominator. if 2 is added to both numerator and denominator is increased by 3, the fraction becomes 1/4. find the fraction

Answer 1

Answer:

Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the denominator be x, then numerator is x-5.

The fraction hence is, (x-5)/x.

If 2 is added to numerator and denominator is increased by 3,

(x-5)+2/(x)+3 = (x-3)/(x+3)

,then the fraction becomes 1/4,

(x-3)/(x+3) = 1/4,

4x - 12 = x + 3,

3x = 15,

x = 5.

The fraction is x-5/x = 0/0 = undefined.
