Question

If two numbers are in the ratio 10: 13 and their differences is 33 what are the two numbers

Answer 1

Let the numbers be x and y

The ratio given
x/y =10/13
x =10y/13
According to the question
x-y =33
Substitute the value of x
10y/13 - y =33
10y - 13y =33x13
-3y=429
Y =429/-3
y = - 143
Now find the value of x
x /y =10/13
x = - 143x10/13
x= -110
