Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be

$4x \: and \: 9x$

$4x + 9x = 26 \\ 13x = 26 \\ x = 2 \\ \\ therefore \\ 4x = 4 \times 2 = 8 \\ and \\ 9x = 9 \times 2 = 18$

Answer 2

Answer:

The Numbers are 8 and 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Ratio of the Numbers = 4 : 9

Their sum = 26

To find :

The Numbers

Solution :

Let the Numbers be -

• 4x
• 9x

➙ 4x + 9x = 26

➙ 13x = 26

➙ x = 26/13

➙ x = 2

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

One Number =

➙ 4(2)

➙ 8

One Number = 8

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

Second Number =

➙ 9(2)

➙ 18

Second Number = 18

$\therefore$ The Numbers are 8 and 18.
