  1. Let the fraction be a/b

    According to the given information,

    (a+1)/(b-1) = 1

    => a – b = -2 ………………………………..(i)

    a/(b+1) = 1/2

    => 2a-b = 1…………………………………(ii)

    When equation (i) is subtracted from equation (ii) we get,

    a = 3 …………………………………………………..(iii)

    When a = 3 is substituted in equation (i) we get,

    3 – b = -2

    -b = -5

    b = 5

    Hence, the fraction is 3/5.
