SECOND FRACTION IS 75/8

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given The sum of two fractions is 5 3/4. If one fraction is more than 1 1/2 to the other fraction.what are the two factors?

• Given sum of two fractions is 5 ¾ = 23/4
• Let one of the fraction be m
• Also one fraction is more than 1 ½ = 3/2  to other fraction.
• According to the question we have
•          m + 3/2 + m = 23/4
•            2m + 3/2 = 23/4
•             2m = 23/4 – 3/2
•                    = 23 – 6 / 4
•                      = 17 / 4
•               m = 17/4 / 2
•           Or m = 17/8 = 2 1/8
•  The other fraction will be                      
•     17/8 + 3/2   17 + 12 / 8
•        29/8
•        3 5/8
• So the two fractions are 2 1/8 and 3 5/8
