According to Question :-
- Here in the question it's mentioned that the sum of two numbers Is 168 and these numbers are in ratio of 10:11 . For making the procedure simple we will take a common term called x and multiply it with both the rational terms .
- 10 × x = 10x
- 11 × x = 11x
Following the question ; we can write the terms as :
- 10x + 11x = 168
Simplification : -
- 21x = 168
- x = 168/21
- x = 8
The value of Common term is 8 .
- 10×8 = 80
- 11×8 = 88
The two numbers are 80 and 88 .
Verification can be done by :—
- 80+88 = 168
- 168 = 168
LHS = RHS !
