Answer:
The original fraction will be 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numerator be x
denominator be y
Original fraction = x/y
if 2 is added to the numerator of a fraction becomes 1/2
=> (x+2)/y = 1/2
=> 2x + 4 = y
if 1 is subtracted from the denominator it becomes 1/3
=> x/(y-1) = 1/3
=> 3x = y - 1
=> y = 3x + 1
equating both the above equation :
2x + 4 = 3x + 1
=> 3x - 2x = 4 - 1
=> x = 3
=> y = 3x + 1 = 9 + 1 = 10
Hence the original fraction will be 3/10.
