Question

tow number are in the ratio 5:6,if the sum of the number is 132 ,find the two number

Answer 1

add the two number 5+6 = 11
then 5/11 of 132 = 60
similarly 6/11 of 132=72

Answer 2

The ratio of two numbers is 5:6
So, let x be common factor.
Thus, the first number is 5x and second one is 6x
According to the problem,
-> 5x+6x=132
-> 11x=132
-> x =132/11 =12
So the required two numbers are (5×12) and (6×12) i.e. 60 and 72 respectively (Ans).
