Answer 1

Answer:

The numbers are 60 : 84 divide it by 12 and you get 5 : 7

Answer 2

Answer:

solution,

            Let the numbers in the ratio of 5:7 be 5x and 7x.

By question,

                    (5x -25)= 35

                     (7x -25)   59

                 Or, 59 x (5x -25) = 35 x (7x -25)

                  Or, 259x - 1475 = 245x - 875

                   Or, 259x - 245x = -875 + 1475

                    Or, 14x = 600

                      Or, x = 600

                                     14

                           Or, x = 300                   5x = 5 x X = 5 x 300 = 1500 =214.285

                                          7.                                                  7        7

                                Or, x = 42.857.           7x = 7 x X = 7 x 300 = 300

                                                                                                7
