A fraction in reduced form is such that when it is squared and then its numerator is reduced by $$33\frac{1}{3}$$ % and denominator is reduced to 20%, its result is twice the original fraction. The sum of numerator and denominator is:

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Let the fraction be $$\frac{{\text{x}}}{{\text{y}}}$$
When fraction is squared its numerator is reduced by $$33\frac{1}{3}$$ and denominator is reduced by 20%
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{According}}\,{\text{to}}\,{\text{question,}} \cr & {\left( {\frac{x}{y}} \right)^2} \times \frac{{33\left( {\frac{1}{3}} \right)\% }}{{20\% }} = 2\left( {\frac{x}{y}} \right) \cr & {\text{Or}},\,{\left( {\frac{x}{y}} \right)^2} \times \frac{{\left( {\frac{2}{3}} \right)}}{{\left( {\frac{1}{5}} \right)}} = 2\left( {\frac{x}{y}} \right) \cr & {\text{Or}},\,\frac{x}{y} = \frac{3}{5} \cr & {\text{Sum of numerator and denominator is}} \cr & \left( {x + y} \right) = 3 + 5 \cr & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 8 \cr} $$
