Answer 2

Given,

The ratio of two numbers = 4:7

The smaller number = 24

To find,

The value of the bigger number.

Solution,

We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.

According to the question,

We have:

The ratio of two numbers = 4:7

The smaller number = 24

Now, let's take the first number to be 4x and the second number to be 7x.

So, the first number is smaller.

Now,

4x = 24

x = 24/4 (4 was in the division on the left-hand side. So, it is in the multiplication on the right-hand side.)

x = 6

So,

Bigger number = 7x

Bigger number = 7×6

Bigger no. = 42

Hence, the bigger number is 42.
