Practicing Success
When 50% of a number A is added to B, the second number B increases by 25%. The ratio between the numbers A and B is: |
3 : 2 2 : 3 1 : 2 3 : 4 |
1 : 2 |
25% = \(\frac{1}{4}\) & 50% = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ATQ, \(\frac{1}{2}\) × A + B = \(\frac{5}{4}\) × B \(\frac{A}{2}\) = \(\frac{5B}{4}\) - B A = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × B So , A : B = 1 : 2 |
