Hope this helps you!

Answer 2

Answer:

$\dfrac{a+b}{b}=\dfrac{p+q}{q}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is,

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{p}{q}$

Adding 1 in both sides,

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{a}{b}+1=\dfrac{p}{q}+1$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{a+b}{b}=\dfrac{p+q}{q}$

This rule is also known as Componendo property of fractions.

Therefore,

$\dfrac{a+b}{b}=\dfrac{p+q}{q}$
