Abstract
In this research, we have studied all positive integer solutions of two Egyptian fractional equations and
. The results showed that the Egyptian fractional equation
has twelve positive integer solutions
, which are
and
. The Egyptian fractional equation
, where
is a prime number and
is a positive integer, has all positive integer solutions
, which are in the form
, where
is an integer with
and
is a positive integer with
.
