Answer 1

Hi,

Here is your answer !
____________________________

Given that,

Two numbers are in the ratio 5 : 3

Let the numbers are 5k and 3k

Also given that,
Numbers are differ by 18

→ 5k - 3k = 18

→ 2k = 18

→ k = 9

Therefore Numbers are
5k = 5 × 9 = 45
3k = 3 × 9 = 27

Hence,

The required numbers are 45 and 27

Answer 2

Hii...☺

Here is your answer.....☺

================================

➡ Let the ratios be "x"

Therefore, the numbers are 5x and 3x.

Now, According to question we have,

➡ 5x - 3x = 18

➡ 2x = 18

➡ x = 18/2

➡ x = 9

=================================

Hence, numbers are:

5x = 5 × 9 = 45
and,
3x = 3 × 9 = 27

==================================

Two numbers are 45 and 27.
