let one number - 5x
other number - 3x
5x - 3x =18
2x = 18
x = 18/2
x = 9
one number = 5*9 = 45
other number = 3*9 = 27
other number - 3x
5x - 3x =18
2x = 18
x = 18/2
x = 9
one number = 5*9 = 45
other number = 3*9 = 27

Let x be the number
there for two number are in the ratio of 5x and 5x.
Two numbers differs by 18.
5x-3x=18
2x=18
x=18/2
x=9
therefore
5x=5x9=45
3x=3x9=27
45-27=18
Hence two number are 45 and 27.
