Answer:
the fraction is 7/13
Step-by-step explanation:
let the fraction be x/y
given that x= y - 6
therefore the fraction can be written as (y - 6)/y
when 1 is added to the fraction then,
(y-6-1)/y - 1 = 1/2
(y - 7)/y - 1= 1/2
(y-1) = 2(y-7)
y - 1 = 2y - 14
y = 13
but x = y - 6
= 13 - 6 = 7
therefore the fraction is x/y = 7/13
hope it helps....
