The numerator and denominator of a rational number are in the ratideno

1.	The numerator and denominator of a rational number are in the ratidenominator is increased by 3, the ratio become:s3 :5. Find the ration
Answer» Let the numerator be x and denominator be yx/y=3/44x=3y4x - 3y=0 .....(1) x/y + 3= 3/55x=3(y+3)5x=3y+95x-3y=9 .....(2) Applying elimination in (1) and (2) 4x-3y=05x-3y=9- + -_______-x=-9x=9 Putting x=9 in (1)4(9)-3y=0-3y= -36y=12 Rational number is 9/12

The numerator and denominator of a rational number are in the ratidenominator is increased by 3, the ratio become:s3 :5. Find the ration

Answer»

Let the numerator be x and denominator be yx/y=3/44x=3y4x - 3y=0 .....(1)

x/y + 3= 3/55x=3(y+3)5x=3y+95x-3y=9 .....(2)

Applying elimination in (1) and (2)

4x-3y=05x-3y=9- + -_______-x=-9x=9

Putting x=9 in (1)4(9)-3y=0-3y= -36y=12

Rational number is 9/12
