Answer 2

Answer :-

• First Number = 15.

• Second Number = 25.

Explanation :-

Given :

• Two numbers are in the ratio 3 : 5.

• If both are increased by 5 , the ratio becomes 2 : 3.

To Find :

• The Numbers.

Solution :

Let the numbers be 3x and 5x.

According to the Question,

⇒ (3x + 5)/(5x + 5) = 2/3.

⇒ 3(3x + 5) = 2(5x + 5).

⇒ 9x + 15 = 10x + 10.

⇒ 10x - 9x = 15 - 10.

⇒ x = 5.

Therefore,

• First Number = 3x = 15.

• Second Number = 5x = 25.

Verification :

⇒ (3x + 5)/(5x + 5) = 2/3.

⇒ (15 + 5)/(25 + 5) = 2/3.

⇒ 20/30 = 2/3.

⇒ 2/3 = 2/3.

LHS = RHS.

Hence, Verified.
