The ratio of two no. is 5:7. When 6 added
to both the no. the ratio becomes
7ratio9.Find the numbers.
Answers
5 : 7
5x, 7x
(5x + 6)/(7x + 6) = 7/9
45x + 54 = 49x + 42
12 = 4x
x = 3
Therefore, the numbers are 15 and 21
Answer:
15 and 21.
Explanation:
If two numbers are in the ratio of 5:7 and if 6 is added to each of them, then their ratio becomes 7:9 . What is the number?
-Two numbers are in the ratio of 5:7
Let the rational between two numbers be x.
Hence the two numbers are 5x and 7x
if 6 is added to each of them, then their ratio becomes 7:9.
After addition of 6 in the number the number becomes 5x + 6 and 7x + 6. The ratio between the numbers
(5x + 6) / (7x + 6) = 7/ 9
Cross multiplication
7 (7x + 6) = 9 (5x + 6)
49x + 42 = 45x + 54
49x - 45x = 54 - 42
4x = 12
x = 3.
The rational is 3. Hence the numbers are
One number = 5x = 5 × 3 = 15
Other number = 7x = 7 × 3 = 21.
Thus, the two numbers are 15 and 21
