Answer:

Let the numerator be x and the denominator be y.

Therefore,

The required fraction,

x/y.

From first condition,

x/y+1=1/2

2x=y+1

2x-y=1..................(1)

From second condition,

x+1/y=1

x+1=y

y-x=1......... (2)

Adding (1) and (2) we get,

x=2 and y=3

Therefore, the required fraction is 2/3.
