Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the fraction is x/y. Then by the given question,
(x+2)/(y+2)=9/11
11x+22=9y+18
11x-9y=18-22
11x-9y=-4
X=(9y-4)/11
(x+3)/(y+3)=5/6
6x+18=5y+15
6x-5y=15-18
6(9y-4)/11-5y=-3
(54y-24-55y)11=-3
-y-24=-3×11
y=33-24=9
x=(9×9-4)/11
x=77/11=7
∴, x=7,y=9 and the fraction is :7/9
