The denominator of a fraction is greater that its numerator by 11. If 8 is added to both its numerator and denominator, it becomes ` (3)/(4)`. Find the fraction .

Answer» Correct Answer - `(25)/( 36)`
Let the required fraction be ` (x)/(y)`.
Then, ` x + 11 = y rArr x - y =-11`.
And, ` (x + 8)/(y + 8) = (3)/(4) rArr 4x + 32 = 3y + 24 rArr 4x - 3y = - 8`
