Answer:

let numerator be x

denominator be y

y=2x+4

(x-6)/(y-6)=x/12x

(x-6)/(y-6)=1/12

(x-6)/2x-2)=1/12

12x-72=2x-2

10x=70

x=7

y=18

original fraction is 7/18.....

hope it helps..........

Answer:

The fraction is 7/18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Numerator be x

Denominator be (2x + 4)

fraction is x/(2x + 4)

According to question

⇒ 12 (X - 6) = 2x + 4 - 6

⇒ 12x - 72 = 2x - 2

⇒ 12x - 2 = -2 + 72

⇒ 10x = 70

⇒ x = 70/10

⇒ x = 7

Numerator = 7

Denominator = 2x + 4

⇒ 2 × 7 + 4

⇒ 14 + 4

⇒ 18

Fraction =

Numerator/ Denominator

7/18
