Question

Adding 6 to numerator of a fraction , the numerator becomes twice the denominator. The quadratic equation satisfying the statement is

• A. x+6 =2y
• B. y+6 = 2x
• C. both (a) and (b)
• D. none of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C

both (a) and (b)

Let numerator of the fraction be x and denominator be y .

Adding 6 to numerator (x+6) , the numerator becomes twice the denominator (x+6 = 2y)

Now if we consider y as numerator and x as denominator , we get (y+6 = 2x)
