Fractions and Decimals
If the numerator of a fraction is increased by 2 and denominator is increased by 3, the faction becomes 7/9 and if numerator as well as denominator are decreased by 1, the fraction becomes 4/5. What i
Let the fraction be N.Then, N / (13/14) - (13/14) x N = 3/65⇒ 14N/13 - 13N/14 = 3/65⇒ (196N - 169N)/182 = 3/65⇒ 27N/182 = 3/65∴ N = (3 x 182) / (27 x 65) = 14/45So, correct answer will be (13/14) x (14/45) = 13/45
Let the total length of pencil = L cm Then, black part = L/8∴ Remaining part = L - L/8 = 7L/ 8 and White part = (7L/8)/2 = 7L/8∴ Remaining part = L - (L/8 + 7L/16) = 7L/16∴ length of blue part = 7L/16According to the question, 7L/16 = 31/2⇒ 7L/16 = 7/2 ∴ L =8
Let the worth of total property be Rs.XWe have to find 3/5 of X.Given that, 5/6 th of the property = Rs.976500i.e., 5/6 x X = 976500X = 976500 x 6/5And, 3/5 of X = 3/5 x 976500 x 6/5 = 18 x 39060 = 703080Hence the answer is Rs. 703080
