Answer:13 / 21
Step-by-step explanation:let the denominator be y and numerator be x . Since the denominator is greater than numerator by 8 theredore y=x+8( since y is 8 more than x so if we add 8 on x side both will be equal ) this is first eqaution the again since numerator is increased by 17 and denominator is decreased by 1 which is eqaul to 3/2 therefore the next equation will be x+17/y-1 =3/2. Then find the answer by any method
