let the greater number be X
smaller number be2x/3
given sum=120
therefore x +2x/3=120
5x/3=120
5x=120*3
x=120*3/5
x=24*3
x=72
greater number=72
smaller number=2/3*72
=48
smaller number be2x/3
given sum=120
therefore x +2x/3=120
5x/3=120
5x=120*3
x=120*3/5
x=24*3
x=72
greater number=72
smaller number=2/3*72
=48
