1. Step-by-step explanation:

   Let the denominator be x

   and the numberator be x-4

   Now, According to question,

   x-4+7/ x+7 = 2/3

   x+3 / x+7 = 2/3

   3(x+3) = 2(x+7)

   3x+9 = 2x+14

   3x-2x = 14-9

   x= 5

   Therfore, denoimator= 5 and the numberator = 5-4 =1

   So, the fraction is 1/5
