let the number be 3x and 5x then
3x+1/5x+1=2/3
on solving you get
9x+3=10x+2
x=1
so the number are 3*1=3
and 5*1=5
3x+1/5x+1=2/3
on solving you get
9x+3=10x+2
x=1
so the number are 3*1=3

3x+1/5x+1=2/3
(3x+1)3=(5x+1)2
9x+3=10x+2
9x-10x=2-3
-x=-1
so, x=1
(3x+1)3=(5x+1)2
9x+3=10x+2
9x-10x=2-3
-x=-1
so, x=1
