Answer:
The original number is 15/22
Solution:
Let us take the numerator to be x.
So, the denominator will be x+7.
Given condition is
The numerator when increased by 17 = x+17
and the denominator when decreased by 6
Then, this must be equal to 2.
Thus, the numerator = x = 15.
As per the condition, the denominator is greater than its numerator by 7.
And, the denominator = x+7 = 15+7 = 22
So, the fraction is =15/22
Thus, the original number is the fraction of 15/22
