Question

Three numbers are in the ratio 2:3:5.given that the product of the extremes is 90, find the difference between the largest and smallest of them.

Answer 1

Answer:

extremes are smallest and largest

so 2x and 5x

$2x \times 5x = 90 \\ 10 {x}^{2} = 90 \\ {x}^{2} = 9 \\ x = \sqrt{9} = 3 \\ 2x = 18 \\ 5x = 45 \\ difference = 45 - 18 = 27$

Answer 2

Answer:

2x ×5x=90

x=3

2x=6

5x=15

15-6=9
