Answer:

1st no.=80

2nd no.=144

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of 2 nos.=5:9

Taking x as the common multiple,

1st no.=5x

2nd no.=9x

After adding 16,

Ratio of 2 nos.=3:5

There fore accoding to the condition,

5x+16/9x+16=3/5

Cross multiplying

5(5x+16)=3(9x+16)

25x+80=27x+48

80=27x-25x+48

80=2x+48

80-48=2x

32=2x

x=32/2=16

1st no.=5x=5×16=80

2nd no.=9x=9×16=144
