Answer:-
Let the numerator be "x" and denominator be "y".
The fraction => x/y.
Given:
Denominator is greater than the numerator by 5.
=> y = x + 5 -- equation (1)
And,
If 3 is added to numerator and denominator the fraction becomes 3/4.
According to the question,
Substitute "y" value here,
After cross multiplication we get,
Substitute "x" value in equation (1).
y = x + 5
y = 12 + 5
y = 17
Therefore, the fraction x/y = 12/17.
