Question
Positive integers indicated by x and y satisfy 3 1/x * y 2/5 = 13 3/4, the fractions being in their lowest terms, then x = ? and y = ?
Options:
A .  x = 4, y = 8
B .  x = 4, y = 4
C .  x = 2, y = 4
D .  x = 8, y = 4
E .  None of these
Answer: Option D


3 1/x * y 2/5 = 13¾=> (3x + 1) / x + (5y + 1) / 2 += 55 / 4only choice (4) i.e x = 8 and y = 4 satisfies the given equation.3 (1/8) * 4 (2/5) = (25 / 8 ) * (22 / 5) = 55/4 = 13¾
