QUESTION :- THE RATIO OF TWO NUMBERS IS 801 IF THEIR DIFFERENCE IS 623 . FIND THE NUMBER ?
___________________________
Given :- •) Ratio is 801
•) Difference is 623
___________________________________
SOLUTION :-
Let the 1st number be - x
Let the second number be - y
According to question ,
x/y = 801
=> x = 801y _____(i)
x - y = 623
=>x = 623 + y _____(ii)
By substituting the value of x from equation (i) to equation (ii) we get ,
801y = 623 + y
=> 801y - y = 623
=> 800y = 623
=> y = 623 / 800
=> y = 0.778
x = 623 + y
=>x = 623 + 0.778
=>x = 623.778
Answer :- Therefore the value of x is 623.778 and y is 0.778 ...

The ratio of two number is 801
The difference of two number is 623
The 1st number be X
The 2nd number be Y
The ratio of two number is 801
⟹x/y=801/1
⟹x=801y
The difference of two number is 623
⟹x-y=623
putting the value of x=801y in EQ ii
⟹801y-y=623
⟹800y=623
⟹y=623/800=0.77875
substituting the value of y in EQ I
⟹x=801y
⟹x=801×0.77875
⟹x=623.77875
Hence,
