Question

three numbers are in the ratio 4 5 6 if the sum of the largest and smallest number equal the sum of the third and 55 find the number ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the numbers be 4x, 5x and 6x.

4x+6x =5x+55, or

10x - 5x = 55

5x = 55

x = 11.

So the three numbers are 44, 55 and 66.

Check:44+66 = 110 which is the same as 55+55. So correct.
