Question

The sum of numerator and denominator of a fraction is 5. Five times the numerator is 4 more than twice the denominator. What is the fraction?

Answer 1

Answer:

2/3

Explanation:

let numerator be x and denominator be y

x+y=5 , x=5-y -(1)

5x= 2y + 4

putting value of (1 )

5(5-y) = 2y+4

25-5y = 2 y +4

21= 7y

y=3

X=2

fraction is 2/3
