a : b?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \frac{10}{21} = \frac{2a}{a+b}\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

flip them

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \frac{21}{10} = \frac{a+b}{2a}\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

try to find b/a first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could it be a = 13 b = 8?

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

oh man this is harder than calculus...sorry it's been years since I've done this problem

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\(\large \frac{21}{5} = \frac{a+b}{a} \) \(\large \frac{21}{5} = 1 + \frac{b}{a} \) \(\large \frac{21}{5} - 1 = \frac{b}{a} \)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

simplify, and flip it again to get a/b
