Correct Question :-
- Two numbers are in the ratio 5 : 7
- Their difference is 10. Find the numbers.
Given :-
- Ratio of numbers = 5:7
- Their difference = 10
Have to Find :-
- The numbers = ?
Solution :-
Let's consider the numbers be " 5x " and " 7x " respectively.
So,
According to the Question
↬ 5x - 7x = 10
↬ (- 2x ) = 10
↬ x = 10/-2
↬ x = ( -5)
Now,
- First number = 5x
⇒ 5 × (-5) = - 25
- Second Number = 7x
⇒ 7 × (-5) = - 35
Therefore, the numbers are (-25) and (-35) respectively.
