Question

the sum of two numbers is 25 and their ratio of 2:3. find the numbers ans in detail

Answer 1

Ratio = 2 : 3

.

Let x be the constant ratio:

2x + 3x = 5x

.

The sum is 25:

5x = 25

x = 25 ÷ 5

x = 5

.

Find the numbers:

2x = 2 x 5 = 10

3x = 3 x 5 = 15

.

Answer: The numbers are 10 and 15

Answer 2

A. T. Q
let the ratio in x
so
the equation must be
2x+3x=25
5x=25
x=25/5
x=5
by putting the value of x in the equation we get
2
$2 \times 5 = 10$
$3 \times 5 = 15$
