Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
let the denominator be x
then numerator = x-3
so fraction= x-3/x
so, according to question numerator becomes three times and denominator is increased by 20 so new fraction=
3(x-3)/x+20 = 3x-9/x+20
according to question, the resulting fraction= 1/8 so -
3x-9/x+20 = 1/8
= 8(3x-9) = x+20
= 24x-72 = x+20
= 24x-x = 20+72
= 23x = 92
= x = 92/23 = 4
so original fraction = 4-3/4 = 1/4
