Question 5: Two numbers are in the ratio 5:3. If they differ by 18, what are the numbers?

Answer 1

★ Linear equations ★

Let the numbers be 5x, 3x

We have assumed x, so that the ratio doesn't change.

5x-3x =18 According to question

2x =18

x =9

The numbers are 45,27

Answer 2

2X= 18

X=9

IST NUMBER= 5X= 9 x 5= 45
2ND NUMBER= 3X = 9 x 3 = 27
