Question

2. Two numbers are in the ratio 8:9. If they differ by 7, what are the numbers ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=7 and then 63-56=7 hence checked

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the common multiple be 'x'

So the numbers are:

8x and 9x.

As their difference is 7,

9x - 8x = 7

Hence, x=7.

9x = 9×7 = 63

8x = 8×7 = 56

Therefore, the numbers are 56 and 63 respectively.
