Answer:
If the ratio of x to y is 4:5 then 4x = 5y, and the sum of the two numbers is 27, so x + y = 27, and x = 27 - y. Using simultaneous equations we plug our expression for x into 4x = 5y to get 4(27 - y) = 5y and solve for y… 108 -4y = 5y, 108 = 9y, y = 108/9 = 12. If y = 12 then 4x = 5(12) = 60 and x = 15 and the product is 12 x 15 = 180.
