Let's assume the first number to be X
Let's assume the second number to be X+10
=X 3
---------- = -------
X+10 5
Cross multiply
= 5X= 3 (X+10)
=5X= 3X+30
=5X-3X= 30
=2X=30
=X= 15
=X+10= 25

let the numbers be 5x and 3x ...the difference is 2x
⇒2x=10(the difference between the nos is 10.)
⇒x=5.
so the nos are 3x=15 and 5x=25
⇒2x=10(the difference between the nos is 10.)
⇒x=5.
so the nos are 3x=15 and 5x=25
