Let the numerator be :- x
Then, the denominator will be - x + 2
Therefore,
Numerator = 3
Denominator = 3+2 = 5
Ans) The fraction is 3/5

\huge\mathrm{Answer}Answer
Let the numerator be :- x
Then, the denominator will be - x + 2
\begin{gathered}x + 3 \div x + 2 + 3 = 3 \div 4 \\ = > x + 3 \div x + 5 = 3 \div 4 \\ = > 4(x + 3) = 3(x + 5) \\ = > 4x + 12 = 3x + 15 \\ = > 4x - 3x = 15 - 12 \\ = > x = 3\end{gathered}
x+3÷x+2+3=3÷4
=>x+3÷x+5=3÷4
=>4(x+3)=3(x+5)
=>4x+12=3x+15
=>4x−3x=15−12
=>x=3
Therefore,
Numerator = 3
Denominator = 3+2 = 5
Ans) The fraction is 3/5
