see it is 72 so we need to divide it by 9 and we get 8 so same for 11 we multiply it with 8

Answer 2

Answer:

160

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the ratio, let the two parts be 9x and 11x

First part = 72. (given)

9x = 72

x = 72/9 = 8

therefore, the second part, putting value of x,

11 x = 11 × 8 = 88

Therefore the two parts of the required number are 72 and 88

hence, the number is 72 + 88 = 160

ANSWER IS 160
