Est Answer: say the numbers<span> are x and y......and y being the bigger </span>number<span> ... </span>If<span> the </span>ratio<span> is 5:3, then </span>difference<span> between </span>ratio<span> = 5-3 = 2 ... Substituting this x = 5y/3 in equation x-y=</span>18<span> we </span>get<span> ... therefore x = 5 * 27/</span>3 = 5<span>*9 = 45 .... One </span>number<span> is 5 more than another. </span>their<span> sum is 53 what are the </span>two numbers<span>?</span>

Answer:

The given fraction $\frac{x^3-x^2}{x^3}$ reduces to $\frac{x-1}{x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the given fraction $\frac{x^3-x^2}{x^3}$

We have to reduce the fraction to the lowest terms.

Consider numerator $x^3-x^2$

We can take x² common from both the term,

Thus, numerator can be written as $x^2(x-1)$

Given expression can be rewritten as ,

$\frac{x^3-x^2}{x^3}=\frac{x^2(x-1)}{x^3}$

We can now cancel $x^2$ from both numerator and denominator,

$\Rightarrow \frac{x^2(x-1)}{x^3}=\frac{x^2(x-1)}{x^2 \cdot x}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{(x-1)}{x^2 \cdot x}=\frac{x-1}{x}$

Thus, the given fraction $\frac{x^3-x^2}{x^3}$ reduces to $\frac{x-1}{x}$
