A number is 50% less than X and another number is 20% less than X. What is the ratio of the two numbers?

5 : 8 2 : 3 3 : 8 3 : 5

5 : 8

Let other two  numbers are  :-  Y & Z 50% = \(\frac{1}{2}\)  &  20% = \(\frac{1}{5}\) Ratio of X  :  Y =  2  :  1             X  : Z  =  5  :  4 Ratio of X : Y : Z = 10  :  5   :  8 Ratio of Y to Z is Y  :   Z  = 5 : 8
