Question

the sum of two fractions is 155/13 and their difference is 41/7.find them.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the two fractions be x and y. It is given

x+y=155/13 and

x-y=41/7

Add these two equations

x+y+x-y=155/13+41/7

2x=(155×7+41×13)/(13×7)

x=(155×7+41×13)/(13×7×2)

The value of x you will get, put that value in any of the above equations, you will get the value of y
