Answer:
The numbers are 45 and 27.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
- Ist number = 5x
- IInd number = 3x
If they differ by 18
★ According to the Question :
- Ist number = 5x
- IInd number = 3x
⇒ 5x - 3x = 18
⇒ 2x = 18
⇒ x = 18/2
⇒ x = 9
__________________________
★ Value of 5x :
⇒ 5x
⇒ 5 (9)
⇒ 45
Ist number = 45
__________________________
★ Value of 3x :
⇒ 3x
⇒ 3 (9)
⇒ 27
IInd number = 27
Therefore, the numbers are 45 and 27.
