Answer 1

Answer:

The fraction is 6/12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the denominator be x.

From the question, we know that the fraction is (x-6)/x.

From the question,

$\frac{x-6+3}{x}=\frac{3}{4}\\\\\frac{x-3}{x}=\frac{3}{4}\\\\4(x-3)=3x\\4x-12=3x\\4x-3x=12\\x=12$

So, the fraction is (x-6)/x=(12-6)/12=6/12
