05. Decrease 94 in the ratio 4:7, what is the result?​

Answer 1

We have to decrease 94 in the ratio 4:7

Let the numbers whose sum is 94 be 4x and 7x .

Now,

4x + 7x = 94

11 x = 94

x = 94/11

So,

4x = 4 × 94/11 = 376/11

3x = 3 × 94/11 = 282/11

Ratio :- ( Rechecking the answer)

376 / 11 × 11/ 282

= 376/ 282

= 4/3

= 4:3
