Answer:
40 and 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the smaller of the two parts.
Then the other part is 90-x.
Notice that the sum of these parts is precisely 90, while the difference is (90-x) - x = 90-2x.
Then, according to the condition,
90-2x/90 = 1/9
90-2x=90/9
90 - 2x = 10
2x = 90 - 10 = 80
x = 80/2 = 40
Thus the smallest part is 40, and the other part is 90-40 = 50

Answer: 40 and 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let one part be x. The other is 90-x.
Given,
(90-x-x)/90 = 1/9
90-2x = 10
2x = 80
x = 40
Therefore the other part is 50.
