Question

The numerator of a rational number is less than the denominator is decrease by 1 and numerator is increased by 17 then the number obtained is 3/2 find the rational number

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the numerator of the rational number be x. Therefore, its denominator will be x + 8. The rational number will be x/x + 8. According to the question, x + 17/x + 8 - 1 = 3/2 ⇒ x + 17/x + 7 = 3/2 ⇒ 2(x + 17) = 3(x + 7) ⇒ 2x + 34 = 3x + 21 ⇒ 34 − 21 = 3x − 2x ⇒13 = x Numerator of the rational number = x = 13 Denominator of the rational number = x + 8 = 13 + 8 = 21 Rational number = 13/21Read more on Sarthaks.com - https://www.sarthaks.com/106152/denominator-rational-number-greater-numerator-numerator-increased-denominator-decreased
