Question

if the ratio of two number is 3:5 and their sum is 360. find those numbers

Answer 1

let the two numbers be 3x and 5x.
so,3x+5x=360
8x=360
x=360/8
x=45
The numbers are 135 and 225.

Answer 2

Hey there

let 3x and 5x be the no

A/q
3x +5x = 360
8x = 360
x = 45

hence , 3x = 3×45
= 135

and 5x , 5 × 45 = 225

verification -
135 + 225 =360
360 = 360
LHS = RHS

Hence the no are 135 and 22
hope this helps u
