Correct Answer: $–\frac{10}{3}$
Solution :
Given: $\frac{a}{b} = \frac{7}{6}$
$\frac{6a + 13b}{6a – 13b}$
Divide the numerator and denominator of the above expression by b.
$=\frac{6 \times\frac{a}{b} +13}{6 \times\frac{a}{b} – 13 }$
Substitute the value of $\frac{a}{b} = \frac{7}{6}$ in the expression.
$=\frac{6 \times\frac{7}{6} + 13 }{6 \times\frac{7}{6} – 13 }$
$=\frac{7+13 }{7 – 13 }$
$= –\frac{10}{3 }$
Hence, the correct answer is $–\frac{10}{3 }$.
