Question

Two numbers are in the ratio 10:3. If their difference is 35, find the numbers.​

Answer 1

In context to questions asked,

We have to determine the value of the number.

As per questions,

We have,

Two numbers are in the ratio 10:3 and their difference is 35.

So, let the numbers be 10 x and 3x.

So, their differences will be

$10x - 3x = 7x$

So, from questions,

$7x = 35 \\ = > x = \frac{35}{7} = 5$

Hence, value of the numbers will be,

$10x = 10 \times 5 = 50 \\ 3x = 3 \times 5 = 15$
