Question

Two numbers are in the ratio 5:8.If the sum of the numbers is
52,find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer: let the numbers be 5x and 8x

ATQ

5x+8x=52

13x=52

x=52/13

X=4

5x=4×5=20

8x=4×8=32

Answer 2

let the two numbers be: 5n and 8n

A/Q: 5n + 8n = 52

13n = 52

n = 52/13 = 4

Hence, 1st no. = 5 x 4 = 20

and 2nd no. = 8 x 4 = 32
