The denominator of a fraction is 5 more than the numerator. if both the numerator and denominator are increased by 3, the the re
sulting fraction becomes 3/4. find the original fraction.
1 answer:
Let's put it into perspective.
x/(x+5)
If increase by 3:
(x+3)/(x+8) = 3/4
Cross multiply.
4(x+3)=3(x+8)
4x+12 =3x+24
Solve algebraically.
4x-3x = 24-12
x = 12
Therefore, original fraction is:
12/17

The movement of the minute hand is circular.
Tangence speed is V=2Rπ/T= 2*7*3.14/3600 inches/sec=0.012211 inches/sec
The path (distance) that minute hand past is D=V*t = 0.012211 * 5 min= 0.012211 * 300sec=>
D=3.663≈3.66 inches
Good luck!!!
