Explanation
To solve the question,
Let
The numerator = x
The denominator = y
So that the original equation will be
[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex]Next, we are told that the numerator is five times the denominator.
So that
[tex]x=5y[/tex]Again, we are told that If nine is added to both the numerator and the denominator, the resulting fraction is equivalent to two. so
[tex]\frac{x+9}{y+9}=2[/tex]Hence
we can substitute x =5y into the above
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{5y+9}{y+9}=2 \\ \\ cross\text{ multiplying} \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} 5y+9=2(y+9) \\ 5y+9=2y+18 \\ Taking\text{ like terms} \\ 5y-2y=18-9 \\ 3y=9 \\ \\ y=\frac{9}{3} \\ \\ y=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the denominator is 3
The numerator will be
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=5y \\ x=5\times3 \\ x=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]The numerator is 15
Therefore, the fraction is
[tex]undefined[/tex]
