Question

if two no lcm is 48. both no ratio is 1:2/3 . then find the sum of no ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sum of the numbers = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the numbers = 1:2/3 = 3:2

So let the numbers be 3x and 2x.

Find the LCM of 3x and 2x.

x is common in both numbers, so the LCM of 3x and 2x will be 3*2*x = 6x = 48

x = 48/6 = 8

So the numbers are 3*8 = 24 and 2*8 = 16

Sum of numbers = 24 + 16 = 40
