Question

half of one number is equal to 0.07 of another.the ratio of the number is

Answer 1

Answer:

let the numbers be x and y

given

x/2 = 0.07y

x/y = 0.07*2

= 0.14

= 14/100

= 7/50

Answer 2

• As per the data given in the question the half of one number is equal to 0.07 of another number,
• This can be written as $\frac{m}{2} =0.07n$
• $m=(0.07)2n$
• m=$1.4$n
• Here,1.4 can be written as $\frac{14}{10}$.
• $m=\frac{14}{10} n\\\frac{m}{n} =\frac{14}{10}$
• Therefore , m=14 and n=10
• Hence,the ratio of the numbers is 14 and 10.It may also be written as 7 and 5.
