Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find below required solution

let one part be x

so other part will be 40 - x

from given condition

x × 1/4 = (40 −x ) × 3/4

⇒ x = 3 (40 −x ) 

⇒ x = 120 − 3x

⇒ 4x = 120

⇒ x = 120/4 = 30

and 40 − x = 40 − 30= 10

hence two required numbers are 30 and 10.
