Answer a) 6
Solution let the fraction be x/y
If 1 is added to the denominator the fraction becomes ½
x/y + 1= 1/2
2x = y + 1 (1)
If 1 is added to the numerator the fraction becomes 1
x + 1/y = 1
y + 1 = y (2)
From (1) and (2), we get
2x = x +1 +1
x = 2
Put this value in (2)
y = 3
The fraction is 2/3
The product of numerator and denominator 2×3 = 6

10 The sum of digits of a two digit number is 12. The difference of the original number and the number obtained by interchanging the digits is 18. Find the number
- 84 2. 66 3. 75 4. 93
Answer c) 75
Solution let the unit’s place digit be x
And ten’s place digit be y
Then the number is 10 y + x
And the number obtained by interchanging the digits = 10 x + y
The sum of digits is 12
x + y = 12 (1)
The difference of the original number and the number obtained by interchanging the digits is 18
10y + x – 10x – y = 18
9y – 9x = 18
y – x = 2 (2)
Adding (1) and (2), we get
2y = 14
y = 7
x = 5
The number is 75
