Answer:

Given ratio, 2:3

Let, x be the constant ratio..

2x : 3x

And the larger number is 30 more than half of the smaller number.

3x = 1/2 (2x) + 30

3x = x + 30

3x - x = 30

2x = 30

x = 30/2

x = 15

Now, we got the value of x is 15

Substitute the value of x in the ratios..

2x = 2(15) = 30

3x = 3(15) = 45

Therefore, the numbers are 30 and 45.

✰✰ ANSWER ✰✰

\implies\tt{Let\:the\:first\:number\:be=2x}

\implies\tt{Let\:the\:second\:number\:be=3x}

As Given that the larger number is 30 more than half of the smaller number .So ,

\implies\tt{3x-\dfrac{2x}{2}=30}

\implies\tt{\dfrac{3x}{1}-\dfrac{2x}{2}=30}

\implies\tt{\dfrac{6x-2x}{2}=30}

\implies\tt{\dfrac{4x}{2}=\dfrac{30}{1}}

\implies\tt{x=\dfrac{\cancel{30}\times{\cancel{2}}}{\cancel{4}}}

\red\longmapsto\:\large\underline{\boxed{\bf\green{x}\orange{=}\purple{15}}}

Now ,

\implies\tt{First\:Number=2(15)}

\implies\tt\bold{30}

\implies\tt{Second\:Number=3(15)}

\implies\tt\bold{45}

_______________________

VERIFICATION : -

\implies\tt{\dfrac{3(15)}{1}-\dfrac{2(15)}{2}=30}

\implies\tt{\dfrac{40}{1}-\dfrac{30}{2}=30}

\implies\tt{\dfrac{90-30}{2}=30}

\implies\tt{\cancel\dfrac{60}{2}=30}

\implies\tt{30=30}

\green\longmapsto\:\large\underline{\boxed{\bf\red{x}\orange{=}\pink{8}}}
