Answer:
4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let numerator = x
We know that denominator is 2 times x + 1
Therefore, denominator = 2x +1
So the fraction will be in the from (x)/(2x+1)
So after adding 2 to numerator and subtracting 3 from denominator, we will get 1. To express this algebraically, we can say -
(x+2)/(2x+1-3) = 1
Therefore,
(x+2) = 2x - 2
x = 4.
Therefore substituting 4 into (x)/(2x+1), we get 4/9.
Therefore, original fraction is 4/9.
Have a nice day!!!
