Question

the difference between two positive integers is 30 the ratio of these interior is 2 by 5 find the integers​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the ratio be 2x and 5x

according to the equation,

5x-2x=30

3x=30

x=3/30

x=10

5x=5*10=50

2x=2*10=20

Answer 2

Correct question:-

• the difference between two positive integers is 30 the ratio of these integers is 2:5 ,find the integers.

Solution:-

• let the no.s be 2x and 5x

$\implies$ $\sf 5x-2x = 30$

$\implies$ $\sf 3x = 30$

$\implies$ $\sf x = \dfrac{30}{3}$

$\implies$ $\sf x = 10$

hence, the no.s are 2×10 = 20

and 5×10 = 50
