Question

two number are in the ratio of 2:3 . if 2 is added to both, the ratio becomes 3/4 . find the number ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the two numbers are x and y.

According to the first conditions,

y+2

x+2

=

2

1

⇒2x−y=−2⟶(1)

and according to the second condition,

y−4

x−4

=

11

5

⇒11x−5y=24⟶(2)

Multiplying equation (1) by 5 we get,

10x−5y=−10⟶(3)

Subtracting equation (2) from equation (3),

⇒11x−5y−10x+5y=24+10

⇒x=34

Putting the value of x in equation (1),

⇒2×34−y=−2

⇒68−y=−2

⇒y=70

Hence, the required numbers are 34,70.
