Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the higher or greater number.

Since the ratio between the higher and the smaller number is 2:3, then the smaller number = (2/3)n since {(2/3)n]/n = 2/3.

Since the sum of these two numbers is 225, then we can write the following equation:

n + (2/3)n = 225

Now, clear the equation of fractions by multiplying both sides of the equation by the only denominator, 3, as follows:

3[n + (2/3)n] = 225(3)

3n + (3)(2/3)n = 225(3)

3n + (3/1)(2/3)n = 675

3n + (6/3)n = 675

3n + 2n = 675

Now, collecting like-terms on the left side, we get:

(3 + 2)n = 675

5n = 675

Now, divide both sides of the equation by 5 in order to isolate n on the left side, thus solving for n:

(5n)/5 = 675/5

(5/5)n = 135

(1)n = 135

n = 135

CHECK:

n + (2/3)n = 225

135 + (2/3)(135) = 225

135 + (270/3) = 225

135 + 90 = 225

225 = 225

Therefore, n = 135 is indeed the higher or greater number.
