Can you please explain what you said
After reducing the fraction it becomes equal to 5/12. Let the common element which was cancelled out be x. So we can say the original fraction was

.
The denominator of the fraction is 147 greater than the numerator. We can write it as:
12x = 147 + 5x
12x - 5x = 147
7x = 147
x = 21
So, the numerator of the fraction was 5 x 21 = 105
Denominator of the fraction was 12 x 21 = 252
So our original fraction was
(12 - 9) / 12 = (40 - x) / 40
3/12 = (40 - x) / 40
40(1/4) = 40 - x
10 = 40 - x
10 - 40 = -x
-30 = -x
30 = x <=== percent decrease from 40 to 30
