Answer 1

The rational equation is;

(8 + n)/(15 + n) = 3/4

Explanation:

Here, we want to write a rational equation.

Before the addition we have a total of 8 strawberries out of a total 15 candies

So to make the ratio 3:4, we are going to add n strawberries and this also will increase the total to (15 + n)

So the rational equation will be;

(8 + n)/(15 + n) = 3/4
