Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Ratio of numbers = 12 : 13

Let The numbers be 12x , 13x .

Given, Numbers are reduced by 20 .

12x - 20 / 13x - 20 = 2/3

3 ( 12x - 20 ) = 2 ( 13x - 20 )

36x - 60 = 26x - 40

36x - 26x = 60 - 40

10x = 20

x = 2 .

Now, The numbers are 2(12) , 2(13) = 24 , 26 .

Step by step explaination

Given ratio of numbers =12,13.

Let the numbers be 12x,13x.

Given numbers are reduced by 20.

= 12x - 20/13x-20 =2/3

= 3(12x-20)=2(13x-20)

= 36x-60=26x-40

= 36x-26x=60-40

= 10x=20

So x=2

Now, the numbers are 2(12),2(13)=24,26
