: The sum of two numbers is 98. If the ratio of smaller number and
number is 5: 9. then find these numbers
​

Answer 1

let the numbers be 5x and 9x

5x + 9x = 98

14x = 98

x = 7

Number = 5x = 5 x 7 = 35

Other number = 9x = 9 x 7 = 63

Answer 2

Let us take the given ratio be 5x:9x.

Then, the sum of the numbers = 5x+9x = 14x.

But, it is given 98.

So,

ATQ, 14x = 98.

or x = 98/14.

Therefore x = 7.

Therefore 1st number = 5x = 5×7=35.

Therefore 2nd number = 9x = 9×7 = 63.
