Answer 1

Answer:

hey here is your answer

pls mark it as brainliest

so here we go

Step-by-step explanation:

let numerator of certain fraction be x and denominator be y

so then required fraction=x/y

according to first case,

x+1/y-1=1

ie x+1=y-1

ie y=x+2 (1)

according to second case

x/y+1=1/2

ie 2x=y+1 (2)

substitute value of y from (1) in (2)

we get x=3

so substitute value of y in any of two equations we get

y=5

so then required fraction is 3/5
