Answer 2

Answer:

Given,

numerator=4x

denominator=5x

6 added to numerator gives 4x +6

8 added to denominator gives 5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+6 / 5x+8 = 11 / 14

do cross multiplication

we will get 14(4x+6)=11(5x+8)

56x+84=55x+88

56x-55x=88-84

{x=4}

numerator=4x=4(4)=16

denominator=5x=5(4)=20.
