Answer 1

Answer:

let the numbers be x and y

A to Q

x/y = 2/3

x = 2y/3

and x + y = 100

2y/3 +y = 100

5y/3 = 100

5y = 300

y = 60

then x = 40

Answer 2

Answer:

40 ,60

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be =2x

second nu,ber be 3x

2x +3x =100

5x=100

x= 100 /5

x=20

2x = 2 * 20 =40

3x = 3* 20 =60
