Answer:
Let the number added be x
(3+x)/(5+x) = (13+x)/(19+x)
By cross multiply
(3+x)(19+x) = (13+x) (5+x)
57 + 22x +x^2 = 65 + 18x + x^2
22x - 18x = 65 - 57
4x = 8
X = 2
If you get your answer plz like it and add as brainliest.

Answer:
Let the number added be=x
(3+x)/(5+x) = (13+x)/(19+x)
By cross multiply
We get=(3+x)(19+x) = (13+x) (5+x)
Which is =57 + 22x +x^2 = 65 + 18x + x^2
Then, 22x - 18x = 65 - 57
=4x = 8
=X = 2
