Given :
- Two numbers are in the ratio 3:4.
- When 10 is added to each other, the ratio become 5:6
To Find :
- Find the Numbers
Solution :
Let the Number be 3x and 4x
According to Question
⟹ 3x + 10/4x + 10 = 5/6
⟹ 6 (3x + 10) = 5 (4x + 10)
⟹ 18x + 60 = 20x + 50
⟹ 20x - 18x = 60 - 50
⟹ 2x = 10
⟹ x = 5
Hence, The Numbers are
- 3x = 3 × 5 = 15
- 4x = 4 × 15 = 20
Verification :
⟹ 15 + 10/20 + 10 = 5/6
⟹ 25/30 = 5/6
⟹ 5/6 = 5/6
∴ The Numbers are 15 and 20.
