Iwill give brainliest but show it step by step. what number should you subtract from the numerator of the fraction 52,367/47,633 and add to the denominator so that, after reducing, you get 17/83 ?

Let the number = x

The numerator will become = 52,367 - x

The denominator will become = 47,633 + x

∴

∴ 17 * ( 47,633 + x ) = 83 * ( 52,367 - x )

∴ 17 * 47,633 + 17x  = 83 * 52,367 - 83x

∴ 83x + 17x = 83 * 52,367 - 17 * 47,633

∴ 100 x = 3,536,700
∴ x = 3,536,700/100 = 35,367

So, The required number is 35,367

The correct answer is 7
