THE RATIO IS 5:3
THE EQUATION IS
5x = 3x + 10
5x - 3x = 10
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x=5
NOW, WE GOT THE VALUE OF x
APPLY IT ON THE EQUATION TO GET THE NUMBER
5 x 5 = 3 x 5 + 10
25 = 25
THE NUMBER IS 25
TWO PARTS ARE 15 & 10

Answer:
since the two parts are in the ratio 5:3 , then left the first number be 5x and second number be 3x . As second number is 10 more than the other, so it will be 3x+10
5x= 3x+10
2x=10
x=5
the first number becomes 5(5) =25 and second number becomes 3(5) =15
the new number will be 25 + 15= 40
