Question

TWO NUMBERS ARE IN RATIO 5:3.IF THEY DIFFER BY 18,WHAT ARE THE NUMBERS rn

Answer 1

Let the numbers be 5x and 3x.
we know that they differ by 18.
So,
5x-3x=18
2x=18
x=18/2
x=9.
Put the values,
then,5x=5*9
= 45,
3x=3*9
=27.

Answer 2

Let the no be x-
then,
5x-3x=18
=2x=18
=X=18/2
X=9.

then put the values in 5x and 3x that is,
5×9=45
3×9=27

then the numbers are 45 and 27.
