Question

the numerator of fraction is 2 less the denominator lf one is addead to its denominator it becomes 1/2 find the fraction​

Answer 1

Answer:

numerator of fraction is 2 less the denominator so X/y be the fraction

X=y-2,

the fraction is (y-2)/y

if 1 is added to denominator it becomes 1/2

(y-2)/y+1=1/2

2(y-2)=y+1

2y-4=y+1

y=5

X=y-2=5-2=3

the required fraction is 3/5
