Question

Two number are such that the ratio between them is 3:5 .if each is increached by 5,the ratio bwtween the new numbers so formed is 2:3.

Answer 1

The ratio between the numbers is 3:5.

Let the numbers be 3x and 5x.

So , According To The Question→

(3x+5)/(5x+5) = 2/3

or, 3(3x+5) = 2(5x+5)

or, 9x + 15 = 10x + 10

or, 10x-9x = 15-10

or, x = 5

Therefore , the numbers are →

3x = 3×5 = 15

5x = 5×5 = 25

Answer → The numbers are 15 and 25.
