Question

two numbera are in ratio 4:5 if the sum of the number is 36 find the number
​

Answer 1

Answer:

16 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be 4x and 5x.

Then we know sum of 4x and 5x is 36.

From this we get an equation,

4x + 5x = 36

9x = 36

x = 36/9

x = 4

4x = 4*4 = 16

5x = 5*4 = 20

16 + 20 = 36

Hope this answer helped you out

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let let the first number be 4x and the second number be 5x

so according to the question 4 x + 5 x is equal to 36

Hans 9 x is equal to 36

hence x is equal to 4

hence first number is 4 x that is 4 into 4 is equal to 16

second number is 5x which is 5 into 4 equal to 20
