Given ratio → 4 : 7
Let the numbers are 4x and 7x. According to the question if each number is increased by 20, the ratio becomes 7 : 9.
Then,
( 4x + 20 ) : ( 7x + 20 ) = 7 : 9
9( 4x + 20 ) = 7( 7x + 20 )
9( 4x ) + 9( 20 ) = 7( 7x ) + 7( 20 )
9( 20 ) - 7( 20 ) = 7( 7x ) - 9( 4x )
2( 20 ) = 49x - 36x
40 = 13 x
40 / 13 = x
Therefore, number are :–
4 x = 4( 40 / 13 ) = 160 / 13
7 x = 7( 40 / 13 ) = 280 / 13

Given Ratio :- 4 : 7
Let the numbers be x
Therefore,
Number 1 = 4x
Number 2 = 7x
✔️After increased by 20 ot becomes
7 : 9
(4x + 20) : (7x + 20) = 7 : 9
9 ( 4x + 20) = 7 ( 7x + 20)
9 ( 4x) + 9 (20) = 7 (7x) + 7(20)
9(20) - 7(20)= 7(7x) - 9(4x)
2(20)= 49x - 36x
➡️ 40 = 13x
X = 40/13
The value of x put in 4x and 7x
✔️ 4x = 4(40/13)= 160/13
✔️ 7x = 7 (40/13)= 280/13
Therefore,
4x = 160/ 13
7x = 280/ 13
