If they differ by 18, what are the numbers? ∴ The two numbers are 45 and 27.
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.

Step-by-step explanation:
let two no.s be x and x
therefore

A/q,
if they differ by 18
5x-3x=18
2x=18
x=9
now,
5x=5×9=45
3x=3×9=27
