the numerator of a rational number is smaller than its denominator by 4 . if the numerator is increased by 3 and denominator is decreased by 5 the number becomes 2. find the rational number

Answer 1

Here is ur ans which is given in the link below please check it out

Answer 2

let numerator be x
then denominator = x +4

if x turns to x+3 and x+4 turns to x+4 -5 = x -1

then x+3 / x -1 =2

x+3 = 2x - 2

2x - x = 3+2

x = 5

so numerator is 5
and denominator is 5+4 =9

number is 5/9
