5. The denominator of a rational number is greater than its numerator by 7. If the numerator is increased by 17 and the denominator is decreased by 6, the new number becomes 2. find the original number. ​

Let the fraction be qp

So q=p+7

q−6p+17=2

⇒p+7−6p+17=2

⇒p+1p+17=2

⇒p+17=2p+2

⇒p=15

q=15+7=22

So qp=2215.

15/22.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the denominator of original number be x.

Then the fraction is written as  x/(x+7).

From the given info:-

(x+17)/ (x + 7 - 6) = 2

(x+17)/(x+1) = 2

2(x+1) = x+ 17

2x + 2 = x + 17

x = 17-2 = 15.

So the original number = x/x+7

= 15/22.

step-by-step explanation:

ok one would be money, and the other would be refreshments or something similar. if each bag of popcorn is 5.00 and each drink is half of that that means drinks are 2.50 the proper way to do that would to look and see how much of each you can buy without exceeding a limit of 30.00

one set of data has more variation than the other. hope this !
