Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x, the second being y.
We have 0.2x = 0.12y
Which is equal to 20x = 12y
Simplify and get 5x = 3y
(That is, x : y = 1/5 : 1/3 = 3 : 5)
So you can plug in some values for x, and y should be x/3*5.
For example, when x = 6, the value for y will be 6/3*5 = 10
0.2*6 = 0.12*10, isn’t it?
