Solution
Given :-
- two numbers are in the ratio of 9:4
- Difference between is 15 .
Find :-
- Required Number
Explanation
Let,
- First Number be x ,
- second number be y .
According to question,
(two numbers are in the ratio of 9:4)
==> x : y = 9:4
==> x/y = 9/4
==> 4x = 9y
==> 4x - 9y = 0_____________(1)
And,
(Difference between is 15 .)
==> x - y = 15________________(2)
By, equ(2)
==> x = 15 + y ________________(3)
Keep value by equ(3) in equ(1)
==> 4(15 + y) - 9y = 0
==> 60 + 4y - 9y = 0
==> -5y = -60
Multiply by (-) in both side ,
==> 5y = 60
==> y = 60/5
==> y = 12
Keep value of " y " in equ(3).
==> x = 15 + 12
==> x = 27
Hence
- First Number is (x) = 27
- Second Number is (y) = 12

Answer Verification
According to question,
(two numbers are in the ratio of 9:4)
==> x : y = 9:4
==> x/y = 9/4
keep value of x & y.
==> 27/12 = 9/4
divide by 3 numerator & denominator of L.H.S.
==> 9/4 = 9/4
Or,
==> 9:4 = 9:4
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
that's Proved
