Answer:
Numerator = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numerator is x.
The denominator is 6 more that the numerator, 6+x
The fraction is equivalent to 1/3. ATQ,
[tex]\dfrac{x}{x+6}=\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
Cross multiplying both sides,
[tex]3x=x+6\\\\3x-x=6\\\\2x=6\\\\x=\dfrac{6}{2}\\\\x=3[/tex]
Numerator = 3
So, the numerator is 3.
