in a fraction, the numerator is 20% less than the denominator.
the sum of fraction and its reciprocal is.??
a).2 1/2
b).2 1/6
c).2 1/20
d).3 1/3

• let denominator be x
  then numerator=x-(20% 0f x)=x-((20/100)*x)=x-x/5=4x/5x=4/5
  now,according to question,we have to find
  sum of fraction + reciprocal
  =(4/5)+(5/4)=(16+20)/20=41/20=2 1/20

• let denominator be =x
  so, numerator will be: x-0.2x =0.8x
  
  so (0.8xx)+(x.8x)= 0.8 +(10/8)
  
  = 41/20

• let denominator be 100% then numerator is 80%
  then 80/100=4/5
  the reciprocal of 4/5 is 5/4
  the sum of fraction and reciprocal is 4/5+5/4=41/20
  2 1/20

• Let denominator be X.
  Therefore the equation becomes-
  ((80*X)/100)/X + X/((80*X)/100)
  =80/100 + 100/80
  =82/40=41/20 which is the option c.
