Question

Two number are in the ratio 10:16 if the sum of numbers is 572 find the number

Answer 1

Answer:

220 and 352 are the numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

• Ratio of two numbers is 10:16
• Their sum is 572

To Find

• The numbers

Let First number = 10x

The second number = 16x

According to the Question

⟹ 10x + 16x = 572

⟹ ( 10 + 16 )x = 572

⟹ 26x = 572

⟹ x = 562/26

⟹ x = 22

First Number:

⟹ 10(x)

⟹ 10 ( 22 )

⟹ 220

Second number:

⟹ 16(x)

⟹ 16(22)

⟹ 352

220 and 352 are the numbers.

Answer 2

Given:-

• Ratio of two numbers is 10:16
• Their sum is 572

To Find:-

• The numbers

Let the first number be = 10x

And the second number = 16x

According to the Question:-

$\implies$ 10x + 16x = 572

$\implies$ ( 10 + 16 )x = 572

$\implies$ 26x = 572

$\implies$ x = 562/26

$\implies$ x = 22

First Number:-

$\implies$ 10(x)

$\implies$ 10 (22)

$\implies$ 220

Second number:-

$\implies$ 16(x)

$\implies$ 16(22)

$\implies$ 352

Hence,

220 and 352 are the numbers.
