Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no.s be 13x & 15x

A/Q,

13x+15x = 392

=> 28x = 392

=> x= 14

the no s are:

13x = 182

15x= 195

Answer 2

Answer:

When two numbers are in the ratio $13:15$ and their sum is $392$ , then the numbers are $182$ and $210$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios are the reduced form of partition. When a ratio is given, the exact numbers will be the multiple of that by a common number.

That is two numbers are in the ratio $13:15$ means, the actual numbers are $13x$ and $15x$ .

Their sum is $392$ means  

 $13x+15x=392\\\\28x=392\\\\x=392/28=14$  

Therefore the numbers are $13*14=182$

and $15*14=210$

So their sum is $182+210=392$ .

Hence the answer.
