Answer:
Let numerator be x and denominator be y.
If 2 is added to both numerator and denominator, the fraction becomes 9/11.
x+2/y+2 = 9/11
11(x+2) = 9(y+2)
11x+22 = 9y+18
9y-11x = 22-18
9y - 11x = 4
9y = 4+11x
y = (4+11x)/9
If 3 is added to both numerator and denominator, the fraction becomes 5/6.
x+3/y+3 = 5/6
6(x+3) = 5(y+3)
6x+18 = 5y+15
5y = 6x+18-15
5y = 6x+3
y = (6x+3)/5
(4+11x)/9 = (6x+3)/5
5(4+11x) = 9(6x+3)
20+55x = 54x + 27
55x-54x = 27-20
x = 7
y = (4+11(7))/9 = (4+77)/9 = 81/9 = 9
Therefore, x = 7 and y = 9
The fraction = 7/9 ans.
