Answer:
18 and 27, respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be 2x and 3x, respectively.
Sum of the numbers: 45.
Forming an equation, we get,
2x + 3x = 45
→5x = 45
{Transposing 5 to RHS...}
→x = 45/5
→x = 9
First number: 2x →2×9 →18.
Second number: 3x →3×9 →27.
Checking the Solution...
First number: 18.
Second number: 27.
Sum of the numbers: 18 + 27
→45.
Given Sum of numbers: 45.
45 = 45.
{First Condition Satisfied...}
Ratio of the numbers: 18:27
→2:3.
Given Ratio of the numbers: 2:3.
2:3 = 2:3.
{Second Condition Satisfied...}
Hence, the numbers are 18 and 27, respectively.
