Answer 1

Given :-

• Ratio of the numbers = 8 : 3

• Sum of numbers = 143

To Find :-

• The Number

Solution :-

Let's :-

• 1st number = 8x
• 2nd number = 3x

According to Question

8x + 3x = 143

11x = 143

x = 143/11

x = 13

Now

1st number = 8x = 8 × 13 = 104

2nd number = 3x = 3 × 13 = 39

104 and 39 are the numbers

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

${\red{\underline{\underline{\bold{Given:-}}}}}$

• Sum of the two numbers = 143

${\blue{\underline{\underline{\bold{To\:Find:-}}}}}$

• The two numbers

${\green{\underline{\underline{\bold{Solution:-}}}}}$

Let

• The 1st number be ' 8x ' and

• The 2nd number be ' 3x '

Sum of the numbers = 143

According to the question :-

8x + 3x = 143

》 11x = 143

》 x = $\frac{143}{11}$

》 x = 13

The numbers are:-

1st number = 8x = 8 × 13 = 104

2nd number = 3x = 3 × 13 = 39

Therefore :-
