Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let 1st no.= 8x

and 2nd no. = 3x

difference between numbers =22. (given)

so, 8x -3x =22

5x = 22

x= 22/5

x = 4.4

then 1st no. =8x = 8 x 4.4 =35.2

and 2nd no. = 3x = 3 x 4.4= 13.2

hope it is useful for you

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let these ratios be 8x and 3x

As we know, their difference is 22

So, 8x-3x=22

5x=22

x=22/5

x=4.4

So 8x= 8*4.4=35.2

3x=3*4.4=13.2
