Question

Two numbers are respectively 20% and 50% more than a third number. What ks the ratio of the

two numbers?​

Answer 1

Let us imagine that the third number be x

Hence as per statement the first number be

x+ (20x/100)

x+x/5

5x+x/5

=6x/5

and the second number will be

x + (50x / 100 )  

x + 50x/100

x+x/2

2x+x/2

3x/2

The ratio of the two numbers is

(6x/5) / (3x/2)

12/15

4/5

Ratio= 4 : 5
