Answer:
Answer is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose, the number is x
then we can write down that __
(10+x) : (18+x) :: (22+x) : (38+x)
or, 10+x / 18+x = 22+x / 38+x
or, 380+10x+38x+x^2 = 396+18x+22x+x^2
or, 380+48x=396+40x
or, 48x-40x=396-380
or, 8x= 16
or, x = 2
if we add 2 with each number then
10+2 : 18+2= 12:20= 2: 5
and, 22+2 : 38+2 = 24:40=2:5 [PROVED]
