Answer 1

Answer:

Thanks for your question...

Your required answer :

• $\frac{5 + x}{11 + x} = \frac{3}{5}$

Niw , by cross multiplication method :

• 33 + 3x = 25 + 5x
• 33 - 25 + 3x - 5x = 0
• 8 - 2x = 0
• - 2x = - 8
• x =
• $\frac{ - 8}{ - 2}$
• x = 4

Therefore 4 should be added to make it 3 : 5.
