Question

the sum of the numerator and dinominator of a fraction is 4 more than twice the dinominator if dinominator and numerator are increased by 3 they are in the ratio 2:3 determine the fraction​

Answer 1

let the numerator and denominator be x and y

given that

x+y=2y+4

x-y=4

3x-3y=12 -----------(a)

(x+3)/(y+3)=2/3

3x+9=2y+6

3×-2y=-3-----------(b)

subtracting (a) and (b)

y=-15

x=-11

please recheck the values of x and y
