Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
Let given two numbers are ' x ' and ' y ' , So from first condition we get
x:y = 4:5 ,
x/y = 4/5
5 x = 4 y --- ( 1 )
And from second condition we get
(x-30) / (y-30) = 1/2
x − 30y − 30 = 1/2 ,
2 x - 60 = y - 30 ,
2 x - y = 30 --- ( 2 )
x= 40
y = 50

Given :-
Two numbers are in the ratio 4:5 if 30 is subtracted from each of the number, the ratio becomes 1:2
To Find :-
Numbers
Solution :-
Let the ratio be 4x and 5x
4x - 30/5x - 30 = 1/2
2(4x - 30) = 5x - 30
8x - 60 = 5x - 30
8x - 5x = 60 - 30
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
Numbers are
4x = 4(10) = 40
5x = 5(10) = 50
