Given,
Sum of two numbers = Thrice the difference of the same numbers
To Find,
The ratio of two numbers=?
Solution,
Let one number be x and the other number be y
According to the question,
x + y = 3(x - y)
x + y = 3x - 3y
y + 3y = 3x - x
4y = 2x
Dividing both sides by 2 , we get
2y = x
y/x = 1/2
Therefore, ratio between two numbers is 1:2
