Given: Three numbers are in the ratio 2: 3: 5.
To find: The numbers?
Solution:
- Now we have given that three numbers are in the ratio 2: 3: 5.
- Let the common ratio be x, then:
the numbers will be 2x , 3x , 5x.
- The sum of their squares is 342, so:
4x^2 + 9x^2 + 25x^2 = 342
38x^2 = 342
x^2 = 342/38
x^2 = 171/19
x^2 = 9
x = ±3
- If x = 3, then numbers will be 6,9,15
- If x = -3, then numbers will be -6,-9,-15
Answer:
So the numbers are 6,9,15.
