Answer:4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the denominator is=x
Then numerator =x-1
Numerator decreased by 2=x-1-2=x-3
Denominator increased by x+3
Then the number is (x-3)/(x+3)=1/4.
4*(x-3)=1*(x+3)
4x-12=x+3
4x-x=3+12
3x=15
x=15/3
x=5
Then the denominator is =5
And numerator =5-1=4
Then the fraction =4/5
