and 2 is subtracted from the denominator, a new fraction is formed whose value is 2 Find the original​

Answer 1

Explanation:

let numerator = 3x

and denominator= 2x

ATQ,

we have

3x+3 = 2

2x-2

3x+3= 2(2x-2)

3x= 4x-4-3

3x-4x= -7

-x= -7

x= 7

therefore the numerator = 3x= 3×7= 21

and denominator = 2x= 14

21/14

Answer 2

The answer is 3/2..............
