Question

two numbers are in are in ratio 5 : 8 is that the sum of the numbers is 182 find the numbers

Answer 1

Since the numbers are in the ratio 5:8

Let the number be 5x and 8x

ATQ

5x + 8x = 182
⇒13x = 182
⇒x= 182/13
⇒x= 14

So the two numbers will be
5* 14 and 8 * 14
⇒70 and 112

Answer 2

Let 1st no.Be 5x

Second be 8x

A.T.Q

==> 5x + 8x = 182

==> 13x = 182

==> X = 182/ 13

==> [X = 14]

So. 1st no.= 5x = 5x 14 = 70

Ans 2nd no.= 8x = 8 x 14 = 112

I hope it will help you

Thanks
