Answer:
16 and 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are in the ratio of 4:5
Here two numbers are in ratio
That means the simplest form is 4/5
If 4 is multiplied by x, we will get the first number
Therefore the two numbers are 4x and 5x
So according to the question
4x+5x=36
9x=36
x=4
Therefore the two numbers are
4x=4 multiplied by 4=16
5x=5 multiplied by 4=20
Therefore the two numbers are 16 and 20 which are in ration 4:5 and add up to 36.
I really hope it helps you
