Explanation
- In a pair of fractions fraction A is twice the fraction B.
- Product of two fractions is 2/25.
- The value of fraction A can be figure out in this way.
Let suppose two fractions are y and z.
Fraction y is twice than z.
y = 2z ________ (i)
Product of y and z is 2/25.
yz = 2/25 ________ (ii)
By solving both equations, we can easily determine y (y = 2/5) and z (z = 1/5) in order to figure out Fraction A (y = 2/5).
To Find
Value of Fraction A = ?
Solution
Let suppose
Two fractions are y and z.
According to the given conditions
y = 2z ________ (i)
yz = 2/25________ (ii)
Dividing equation (i) with (ii)
yz/y = 2/50z
z2 = 1/25
z = 1/5
Put z = 1/5 in equation (i)
y = 2/5
Fraction A = 2/5 answer
Conclusion
In a pair of fractions fraction A is twice the fraction B and the product of two fractions is 2/25. The value of fraction A is 2/5.
