One part = 14
One part = 20

Let one part be x
then the other part will be 34-x
According to question, 4/7 of one part(x) is equal to 2/5 of the other part(34-x)
so, 4x/7 = 2(34-x)/5
by cross multiply,
4x × 5 = 2(34-x)×7
20x = 2(34-x)×7
20x/2 = 7(34-x)
10x = 238 - 7x
10x + 7x = 238
17x = 238
x = 14
So one part is = x = 14
Other part = 34 - x = 34-14 = 20
