Q3 of 58 Page 44

Let us express the following statements into simultaneous linear equations:

When 2 is added to both the numerator and denominator of a fraction, its value will be , and when 3 is subtracted from both the numerator and denominator, its value will be .

Let fraction is


When added 2 to both the numerator and denominator, Value =


⇒


⇒ 9x + 18 = 7y + 14


⇒ 7y - 9x = 4


When 3 is subtracted then, Value =



⇒ 2x - 6 = y - 3


⇒ y - 2x = - 3
