Answer:
Given :-
On adding 5 and 15 respectively to the two numbers, their ratio becomes 5 : 4.
20 and 15 is respectively subtracted from the two numbers, the ratio becomes 5 : 2.
To Find :-
What are the numbers.
Solution :-
Let,
First number = x
Second Number = y
By adding 5 and 5 respectively to the two two numbers and their ratio becomes 5 : 4.
By doing cross multiplication we get,
By subtracting 20 and 15 respectively from the two numbers and their ratio becomes 5 : 2.
By doing cross multiplication we get,
Now, by subtracting the equation no 1 from the equation no 2 we get,
Again, by putting the value of x = 45 in the equation no 2 we get,
Hence, we get,
The two numbers are 45 and 25 respectively.
