Question

two number are in the ratio 4is to 2 if they differ by 16 what are the number ?

Answer 1

Answer:

32 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ratio be 4x : 2x

Since they differ by 16,

4x - 2x = 16

2x = 16

x = 16/2

x = 8

Now , we would replace the value of x with 8

4*8 = 32            ,             2*8 = 16
