Answer:

Fraction = 0.6 or 6/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Assume that fraction is x/y

So

x/y = 3/5     , x + y = 16

x/y = ?

Solution:

x/y = 3/5

= x/y = 0.6

= x = 0.6 y

Putting value of x in equation 2:

x + y = 16

= 0.6 y + y = 16

= 1.6 y = 16

=y = 16/1.6 = 10

For x:

x + y = 16

= x = 16 - y

= x = 16 - 10

= x = 6

                                                    Fraction = 0.6 or 6/10
