Question

- Find the difference of two numbers whose sum is 182 and whose ratio is 11:15 (A) 28 (B) 32 (C) 34 (D) 36 (E) None of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 no.s be 11x and 15x respectively

According to the problem,

11x+15x=182

or, 26x=182

or, x=7

Therefore, the 2 no.s are: 77 and 105.

Their difference:

105-77=28

Answer 2

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

11x +15x = 182

26x=182

x= 182/26

x= 7

so, 11*7=77

15*7=105

then, 105-77

= 28
