Answer» Answer: Step-by-step explanation: Answer: let the DENOMINATOR be X then, numerator = x-6 according to QUESTION , => (x-6)+3/x = 2/3 => (x-6+3)/x = 2/3 => (x-3)/x = 2/3 => 3(x-3) = 2x => 3x-9 = 2x => 3x-2x = 9 => x = 9. (denominator) numerator = x-6 => 9-6 = 3 then , fraction = 3/9

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

then, numerator = x-6

according to QUESTION ,

=> (x-6)+3/x = 2/3

=> (x-6+3)/x = 2/3

=> (x-3)/x = 2/3

=> 3(x-3) = 2x

=> 3x-9 = 2x

=> 3x-2x = 9

=> x = 9. (denominator)

numerator = x-6 => 9-6 = 3

then , fraction = 3/9
