Question

The ratio of two numbers is 3:4 and their sum is 420.The greater of the two number is solve​

Answer 1

ratio = 3:4

⟹ let take the ratio be in x

the sum is 420

4x = 420

⟹ 7x = 420

x = 60

⟹ Greater number is 4x = 4(60)

=240

Answer 2

Answer:

Solution:

let first number be= 3x

let second number be = 4x

Since the sum = 420

therefore ;

According to the question:

3x+4x=420

7x= 420

x= 420/7

x= 60

Therefore the number will be

3x=3×60

=180

4x=4× 60

=240

therefore the greater number is 240.
