5x. 6x
no=50 ,60

Answer 2

Answer:

The numbers are 50 and 60.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : HCF of two numbers is 10. If these two numbers are in the ratio 5:6

To find : The numbers ?

Solution :

Let the ratio be 'x',

So, numbers are 5x and 6x.

The HCF of the numbers is 'x'.

We have given the HCF of the numbers i.e. 10.

So, x=10

Numbers are

$5x=5(10)=50$

$6x=6(10)=60$

Therefore, The numbers are 50 and 60.
