Question

If the ratio of two number is 4:7.If the greater number is 49 ,find the smaller one.

Answer 1

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be x

As per the question

4/7=x/49

The reason why we take 49 as denominator is that in question itself is given that the large number is 47.

From the ratio 4:7 we could conclude that 7 is large than 4. so 7 willner in denominator than 49 . So after cancelling it we get x as 28
