Answer 2

Answer :-

• The largest number is 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find :-

• The greatest number

Solution:

Given that,

• The ratio of two numbers = 3:4
• The sum of two numbers = 420

Therefore,

• 3x + 4x = 420

=> 3x + 4x = 420

=> 7x = 420

=> x = 420/7

=> x = 60

The value of x is 60. Now, The numbers are:-

• The number which we assumed as 3x

=> 3x

=> 3*60

=> 180

• The number which we assumed as 4x

=> 4x

=> 4*60

=> 240

According the question,

• The largest number

=> 240 > 180

Hence, The largest number is 240.
