Question

the ratio of 2 no is 2/3. if 2 is subracted from the first and 8 from the second the ratio becomes the reciprocal of the original ratio. find the numbers ans with full solution

Answer 1

x=4 and no. is 8/12. . . .

Answer 2

a/b=2/3
            a-2/b-8=3/2
             b(2/3-3/2)=-12+2
             b=-10*(6/5)
              b=12
a=2/3*b
a=2/3(12)
a=18
