Algebra.Com's Answer #170652 by stanbon(75887) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! My numerator is divisible by 3. My denominator is divisible by 5. My denominator is 4 less than twice my numerator. What's the fraction? \n" ); document.write( "-------------- \n" ); document.write( "Numerator = 3x \n" ); document.write( "Denominator = 5y \n" ); document.write( "---------- \n" ); document.write( "Equation: 5y = 2(3x) - 4 \n" ); document.write( "5y = 6x-4 \n" ); document.write( "y = (6/5)x - 4 \n" ); document.write( "----------------------- \n" ); document.write( "If x = 5, y = 6-4 = 2 \n" ); document.write( "--------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Fraction: (3x)/(5y) = 15/10 = 3/2 \n" ); document.write( "=================================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
