Question

Two numbers are in the ratio 4:5. if 3 is added to each of the numerator and the denominator, the ratio is 5:6, then the given numbers are.​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 AND 15

Step-by-step explanation:

According to question , let two number are 4x and 5x (because their ratio is 4:5)

$\frac{4x + 3}{5x + 3} = \frac{5}{6 } \\ 6(4x + 3) = 5(5x + 3)$

$24x + 18 = 25x + 15 \\ 24x - 25x = 15 - 18$

$- x = - 3 \\ x = 3$

so the given number will be

4×3 =12

5×3=15
