Answer:

Sum of the numbers are 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Two numbers are in ratio 3:4

The number be x

So, we can write it as   \frac{3x}{4x}

4 is added to both of them

The equation will become    \frac{3x+4}{4x+4}

The sum ratio becomes 5:6

So, the equation will be

 ==> \frac{3x+4}{4x+4}=\frac{5}{6}

Cross multiply the numbers on both the sides

The equation becomes

 ==>6(3x+4)=  5(4x+4)

In RHS, Multiply 6 in the equation.

 ==>18x+24=  5(4x+4)

In LHS, Multiply 5 in the equation

==>18x+24=  20x+20

Taking x values one side and constant values another side

==>24-20=  20x-18x

==>20x -18x=  24-20

==>2x=  4

==>x=2

The numbers are 3x:4x

Substitute x in the ratio

The numbers are 3(2):4(2)

The numbers are 6:8

If the 4 is added to 6 and 8

The number become 10 and 12

10:12= 5:6

Sum of the numbers are

==> 6+8

Sum of the numbers are 14
