Abstract
The fraction of positrons in the electron-positron component of cosmic rays is calculated in a scenario where electrons and positrons are generated by Galactic sources with the same spectral index. It is shown that the proposed scenario allows us to reproduce the existing experimental data on the fraction of positrons if the relative yield of positrons in a source is e+/e− ≈ 0.3.
