Let the numerator = $$x$$ => Denominator = $$(3x+2)$$ Fraction = $$frac{x}{3x+2}$$ If the numerator as well as denominator are increased by one => $$frac{x+1}{3x+2+1}=frac{1}{3}$$ => $$frac{x+1}{3x+3}=frac{1}{3}$$ => $$3x+3=3x+3$$ It cannot be solved, thus $$x$$ can take any value and the fraction can be 2/8 , 3/11 , 4/14 ,.... => Ans - (E)
