Answer 1

Answer:

Let us consider the ration of two numbers be x

The two numbers are 5x and 3x

Since two numbers differ by 18, we can write the equation

5x – 3x = 18

2x = 18

x= 9

Therefore the two numbers are

5x = 5 x 9 = 45

and

3x = 3 x 9 = 27

∴ The two numbers are 45 and 27.

Answer 2

Answer:

1.45,27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be 5x and 3x.

A/Q

5x-3x=18

=> 2x=18

=> x=18/2=9

=> x=9

Hence, the two numbers are 45 and 27
