Answer:
24/75
Step-by-step explanation:
───•◈•───
Let the numerator be x and denominator be y
original fraction= x/y
Numerator increased by 50%
x+50x/100= 150x/100
Denominator decreased by 20%
y-20y/100=80y/100
Fraction becomes (150x/100)÷(80y/100)
(150x/100)÷(80y/100)= 3/5
150x/80y=3/5
x/y = 3*80/5*150
x/y= 240/750
= 24/75
