A fraction becomes 2/3 when 1 is added to both, its numerator and denominator.
And ,it becomes 1/2 when 1 is subtracted from both the numerator and denominator. Find the fraction.
Select
A) 1/2  B) 3/4  C) 2/3  D) 3/5  E) 2/5
Let the required fraction be x/y. Then,   x+1 / y+1 = 2 / 3 =&gt; 3x – 2y = - 1 …(i) and x – 1 / y – 1 = 1 / 2   	2x – y = 1 …(ii)   Solving (i) and (ii), we get : x = 3 , y = 5   therefore, Required fraction= 3 / 5.   Answer is 3/5.
