If the numerator of fraction is increased by 200% and the denominator is increased by 350% . The resultant fraction is 5/12 . what was the original fraction ? Correct Answer 58

Let numerator of the fraction is X and denominator is Y, then fraction will be X/Y.Numerator increased 200%, so new numerator would be,[X + (200 of X)/100] = 3X - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - (1)New denominator,[Y + (350Y)/100 ] = 45Y/10 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - (2)Now, accordibng to question,3X /(45Y/10) = 5/1230X / 45Y = 5/12360X = 225YX/Y = 225/360X/Y = 5/8So, Original fraction was 5/8.
