Question

Find two numbers whose sum is 100 and ratio is 9:16​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the common ratio be x

the no.s are 9x and 16x respectively

9x+16x=100

25x=100

x=4

the no.s are 36 and 64

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

first numbers = 9x

second numbers = 6x

from question

9x+6x = 100

25x = 100

x = 100/25

4

so x= 4

Now

first numbers = 9x = 9×4 =36

second numbers = 6x= 6×4 =24
