Question

Two numbers are in the ratio 3:4 if two is subtracted from each number the ratio becomes 2:3 find the numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

we write 3:4 = 3/4

and 2:3 = 2/3

when 2 subtract from 3/4

so, we get

Answer 2

Let the two numbers be 3x and 4x

According to question

$\frac{3x - 2}{4x - 2} = \frac{2}{3}$

$= > 8x - 4 = 9x - 6$

$= > x = 2$

Therefore the numbers are

(3x)=3*2=6

(4x)=4*2=4

Therefore, the numbers are 4 and 6.
