Question

The sum of two no. Is 60 and difference is 6. Find the ratio of the numbers

Answer 1

Hi Mate!!

Let the no.s be x and y

According to the question

x + y = 60..... equation 1

And

x - y = 6 ..... equation 2

.........................................................................

Adding both the equations

2x = 66

Now, put value of x in equation 2

=>. x = 33

=>. 33 - 6= y

=>. 27 = y

So, the ratio of these no.s are x / y = 33 / 27

=>. 11 / 9

=>. Have a nice time .<=
