Answer 2

Answer:

the numbers are 21 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ratio of the numbers be 7x and 8x

Sum of the number = 45

then,

7x + 8x = 45. (given)

or, 15x = 45

or, x = 45 ÷ 15

or, x = 3

A/q,

one number = 7x = 7×3 = 21

and, other number = 8x = 8×3 = 24

To confirm answer,

7x + 8x = 45

= 21 + 24 = 45

this is the correct answer proved.
