A Fraction Number: The sum of the numerator and denominator is 40. if its value is 3/5 after simplifying, what is the fraction before simplifying? (generate variable and answer in equation)

Respuesta :

Here: Fraction = 3/5
Let, original fraction (before simplifying) = 3x/5x
Then, 3x + 5x = 40
8x = 40
x = 40/8
x = 5

So, 3x = 3(5) = 15 & 5(5) = 25

In short, Your Answer would be 15/25

Hope this helps!
