Question

The difference between two positive integers is 32. The ratio of these integers is 1 : 3. Find these integers.

Answer 1

The Ratio between two integers is 1:3.

Let us consider them as 1x and 3x.

So According to question , their difference is 32. →

3x - 1x = 32

or, 2x = 32

or, x = 32/2

or, x = 16

First integer = 1x = 1(16) = 16

Second Integer = 3x = 3(16) = 48.

Answer 2

ratio 1:3
let 1=x
and, 3=3x

now, the difference between two positive integers is 32

Acc. to. Ques
3x-x=32
2x=32
x= 32/2
x=16

now, First, x=16

and. 3x=3×16=48
