Answer:

49 and 35 are the required numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

Two numbers are in the ratio 7 : 5. When 1 is subtracted to the first number and 1 is added to the second number, the ratio becomes 4 : 3

To find :-

The two numbers

Solution :-

Let the first number be 7x and the second number be 5x.

ATP,

\frac{7x-1}{5x+1} = \frac{4}{3}

Cross multiply,

3(7x - 1) = 4(5x + 1)

21x - 3 = 20x + 4

21x - 20x = 4 + 3

x = 7

The two numbers are,

7x = 49

5x = 35

Verification :-

\frac{7x-1}{5x+1} = \frac{4}{3}

Substitute the value of x,

\frac{7(7)-1}{5(7)+1} = \frac{48}{36} = \frac{12}{9} = \frac{4}{3}

Hence, verified !

The numbers are 49 and 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Two numbers are in the ratio 7:5

Let the first number be 7x

Let the second number be 5x

On subtracting 1 to the first and adding 1 to the second ratio becomes 4:3

Therefore

\huge \frac{7x  \:  -  \: 1}{5x  \: +  \: 1}  =  \frac{4}{3}

 3 \times 7x - 1 = 4 \times5x + 1

 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 21x  - 3 = 20x  + 4

 \: 21x - 20x = 4 + 3

 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: x = 7

Thus,

First number = 7x = 7(7) = 49

Second number = 5x = 5(7) = 35

Thus the numbers are 49 and 35
