=>4x-30/5x-30=1/2
=>5x-30=2(4x-30)
=>5x-30=8x-60
=>8x-5x=-30+60
=>3x=60
=>x=10
Therefore, the numbers are (10×4) =40 and (10×5)= 50
Hope it helps you.

Given :-
Two numbers are in the ratio 4:5 if 30 is subtracted from each of the number, the ratio becomes 1:2
To Find :-
Numbers
Solution :-
Let the ratio be 4x and 5x
4x - 30/5x - 30 = 1/2
2(4x - 30) = 5x - 30
8x - 60 = 5x - 30
8x - 5x = 60 - 30
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
Numbers are
4x = 4(10) = 40
5x = 5(10) = 50
