Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
let the fraction=x/y
f 3 is added to both the numerates and the denominates.
then x+3/y+3=3/4
4(x+3)=3(y+3)
4x+12=3y+9
4x-3y=-3---------------(1)
=================
if 1 is subtracted from the numerator and 1 is added to the denominator
then x-1/y+1=1/3
3(x-1)=y+1
3x-y=4
multiply by 3
9x-3y=12-------------(2)
=================
subtract (1) from(2)
5x=12+3=15
x=3
from(2)
9*3-3y=12
-3y=12-27=-15
y=5
so the fraction is:
3/5
