Answer:
Fraction = 7/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the fraction be x/y
when 2 is subtracted from numerator:
(x-2)/y = 1/3
3x - 6 = y
or, 3x - y = 6 --> equation 1
when 1 is subtracted from the denominator:
x/(y-1) = 1/2
2x = y - 1
or, 2x - y = -1 --> equation 2
solve equation 1 and 2
x = 7 , y = 15
fraction = 7/15
