Solution

The correct option is A 2
Given,
$\frac{17}{13} - \frac{15}{13} = \frac{x}{13}$
As the fractions are like fractions, we can subtract the numerators directly and the denomiantors remain the same.

$= \frac{17}{13} - \frac{15}{13}$

$= \frac{17 - 15}{13}$

$= \frac{2}{13}$

On comparison,
$\frac{17}{13} - \frac{15}{13} = \frac{2}{13} = \frac{x}{13}$

Hence $x = 2$
