Answer 2

Answer: 5/8

Step by step explanation :

Let,  

Numerator be x

Denominator be (x +3)  

Fraction = x/(x+3)  

----------------------------

According to the question,

x-3/x+3+2 = 1/5

x-3/x+5 = 1/5

5(x-3) = 1(x+5)

5x-15 = x+5

5x-x = 5+15

4x = 15

x = 20/4

x = 5

then,

fraction = 5/5+3 = 5/8
