✬ First Number = 35 ✬
✬ Second Number = 42 ✬
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Two numbers are in ratio of 5 : 6.
- After subtracting 7 from each of number the ratio becomes 4 : 5.
To Find:
- What are the numbers ?
Solution: Let x be the common in given ratio. Therefore
➼ First number = 5x
➼ Second number = 6x
[ Now subtracting seven from both ]
➼ First number = (5x – 7)
➼ Second number = (6x – 7)
A/q
- After subtracting 7 from each of number the ratio becomes 4 : 5.
(5x – 7) : (6x – 7) = 4 : 5
(5x – 7) / (6x – 7) = 4/5
5(5x – 7) = 4(6x – 7)
25x – 35 = 24x – 28
25x – 24x = – 28 + 35
x = 7
So, The two numbers are
➯ First number = 5(7) = 35
➯ Second number = 6(7) = 42
Solution :
Given :
That two numbers are in the ratio 0f 5 : 6 and if 7 is subtracted then the ratio becomes 4 : 5
To find :
The actuall numbers of the ratio
Answer :
Let the number common in the ratio be x
And first and second numbers be 5x and 6x
The two numbers of ratio = 5 : 6
The ratio value when 7 is subtracted = 5x - 7 and 6x - 7
The value of ratio becomes = 4 : 5
So, 5x - 7 : 6x - 7 = 4 : 5
5x - 7 / 6x - 7 = 4 : 5
Let's do cross multiplication
5 ( 5x - 7 ) = 4 ( 6x - 7 )
25x - 35 = 24x - 28
25x - 24x = -28 + 35
x = 7
First number = 5 ( 7 ) = 35
Second number = 6 ( 7 ) = 42
