Question

The ratio of two numbers is 2:3, if the sum of two numbers is 60, then numbers are

Answer 1

2x+3x=60

x=60/5

x=12

so no are 24,36

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two numbers be x and y

then x/y = 2/3

3x = 2y

and

x +y = 60

2/3 y + y =60

5/3 y =60

y= 36

x = 2/3 y

x = 24
