Answer:
Since the two parts are in the ratio 5:3, then let the first number be 5x and second number be 3x. As second number is 10 more than the other, so it will be 3x+10.
5x=3x+10
2x=10
x=5
The first number becomes 5(5)=25 and second number becomes 3(5)=15.
The new number will be 25+15=40.

Step-by-step explanation:-
Correct question:-
A number is divided into two parts such that one part is 10 more than the other. If the two parts are in the ratio 5:3, find the number and the two parts.
Solution:-
Let the numbers be 5x and 3x
5x is 10 more than 3x
⇒ 5x = 3x + 10
⇒ 2x = 10
⇒ x = 5
The two parts = 5x and 3x
= 5(5) and 3(5)
= 25 and 15
The number = Sum of the two parts
= 25 + 15
= 40
Answer⇒ The number is 40, and the two parts are 25 and 15
