Two numbers are in the ratio 4:3. If 2 is added to each of the number the new ratio becomes 5:4. Then, find the numbers |
20, 15 16, 12 8, 6 12, 9 |
8, 6 |
The numbers are = 4R and 3R ATQ, \(\frac{4R\;+\;2}{3R\;+\;2}\) = \(\frac{5}{4}\) 16R + 8 = 15R + 10 R = 2 Therefore, numbers are: 4R = 4× 2 = 8 3R = 3× 2 = 6 |
