c is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
i think the answer is 8
bc the small one is 4 and the big one is 6
and the other one is 6 so it must be 8
I'm not sure does anyone else know the answer?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:Given that the numerator of a given fraction is 4 less than its denominator.
Also given that 3 is subtracted from the numerator and 5 is added to the denominator, the fraction becomes one by fourth .
Let the fraction be
Since the numerator of a given fraction is 4 less than its denominator we have,
Numerator=Denominator-4
⇒ a=b-4
Since 3 is subtracted from the numerator and 5 is added to the denominator, the fraction becomes one by fourth we have
4(a-3)=1(b+5)
4a-12=b+5
4a-b=17
4(b-4)-b=17 ( ∵ a=b-4)
4b-16-b=17
3b=17+16
3b=33
⇒ b=11
Now put b=11 in a=b-4 we get
a=11-4
⇒ the fraction is a/b=7/11
