The three numbers are in the ratio4:5:6.If the sum of the largest and the smallest equals the sum of third and 55.Find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The numbers are 44, 55 and 66

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the numbers are in the ratio 4:5:6 we will take them to be 4x, 5x and 6x

Given that 4x + 6x = 5x + 55

10x = 5x + 55

10x - 5x = 55

5x = 55

x = 55/5

x = 11

Thus,

4x = 4(11) = 44

5x = 5(11) = 55

6c = 6(11) = 66

Hence, the numbers are 44, 55 and 66
