+# Curious Fraction Tree

+#
+# You are given a fraction, member of the tree created similar to the above sample.
+#
+# Write a script to find out the parent and grandparent of the given member.
+#
+# Example 1:
+#     Input: $member = '3/5';
+#     Output: parent = '3/2' and grandparent = '1/2'
+# Example 2:
+#     Input: $member = '4/3';
+#     Output: parent = '1/3' and grandparent = '1/2'

+# Solution:
+# for node a/b, the children are a/(a+b) and (a+b)/b
