Question

Two numbers are in ratio 4 : 5. If 5 be added to each, the ratio becomes 5 : 6, find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

first number= 4x

second number= 5x

acc to ques,

4x+5 / 5x+5 =5 / 6

6(4x+5) = 5(5x +5)

24x + 30 = 25x + 25

30 - 25 = 25x - 24x

x = 5

first number = 4x = 4×5 = 20

second number = 5x = 5×5 =25
