What must be added to each term of the ratio 3:5, so that it may become equal to 4:​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 11

The other parts of the question are incomplete.  For example "In the ratio 8" eight is not a ratio...  And also, "... so that it may become equal to 4:" the second part is missing.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x+3}{3x+2} = \frac{5}{7}$

∴ 15x + 10 = 14x +21

∴ x = 21-10 = 11

The other parts of the question are incomplete.  For example "In the ratio 8" eight is not a ratio...  And also, "... so that it may become equal to 4:" the second part is missing.
