Question

Two numbers are respectively 40% and 60% more than the third number.the ratio of the two number is

Answer 1

Let the third number be x.

Therefore, the first number = 60% of x = 60/100 * x= 3/5 *x = 3x/5

Similarly the second number=40% of x. = 40/100 *x = 2/5 *x = 2x/5

Therefore, ratio of the numbers= 3x/5 ÷ 2x/5 = 3/2 = 3:2.

Therefore, the ratio between the two numbers is 3:2.
