Question

If the their two positive integers
are in ratio 7:8.
Sum is 90. Find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

TOTAL PARTS = 7+8 = 15

SUM = 90

THEN 1 PART = 90 ÷ 15 = 6

FIRST PART = 7/15 ×90 = 42.

SECOND PART = 8/15 × 90 = 48.

HENCE THE NUMBERS ARE = 42 AND 48 RESPECTIVELY.

Answer 2

Answer:

42, 48

Given:

Ratio = 7:8

Sum = 90

Explanation:

Let the unknown value be x

Then, the numbers will be 7x and 8x

7x + 8x = 90

15x = 90

x = 90/15

x = 6

Substitute the value of x in 7x and 8x

7x = 7 × 6 = 42

8x = 8 × 6 = 48

Hence, the numbers are 42 and 48.
