Question

two numbers are in the ratio 3:4 if 8 is added to each number their new ratio becomes 4:5 find the numbers​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3:4=3x,4x

(3x+8)+(4x+8)=4x+5x

7x+16=9x

7x-9x=-16

-2x=-16

x=-16/-2

x=8

3x=8*3=24

4x=8*4=32

24 and 32 are the numbers

Hope it helps ✌✌

Answer 2

Let the no. be x then,

it become 3x:4x

A/Q 3x+8\4x+8=4\5

cross multiply these no.

15x+40=16x+32

15x-16x=32-40

-x=-8

- is cancelled then,

x=8

so 3x=3×8=24 and

4x=4×8=32

Hope it helps
