Answer:

Numbers are 32 and 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Two numbers in the Ratio = 8 : 7

Sum of the two numbers = 60

8x + 7x = 60

15x = 60

x = 60 / 15

x = 4

First number 8x = 8 ( 4 ) = 32

Other number 7x = 7 ( 4 ) = 28

Proof :

32 : 28

16 : 14

8 : 7

To find : missing numbers .

Given : two numbers are in the ratio 8: 7 , their sum is 60 .

Solution :

  • As per given data we know that two numbers are in the ratio 8: 7 , their sum is 60 .
  • Let , 8x and 7x be the two numbers .
  • Then as per given data we write condition as ,
  • 8x + 7x  = 60
  • Now , by transposition method we find the value of x  .
  • 8x + 7x  = 60  

       15x  =60 \\x  =\frac{60 }{15} \\x =  4

  • Now , substituting the value of x in the numbers to find original numbers.  8x  =8\times 4 = 32

                         7x = 7\times 4 = 28

Hence , missing numbers are 32 and 28 .
