Answer» Ratios of number = 5:3The difference = 18 To FIND :the numbersSolution :⇒ Let's create the equation. Let the number be x.Here, subtraction is used because the difference is given.→ 5X - 3x = 18 Since, both the variables are the same, we can subtract them.→ 5x - 3x = 18 → 2x = 18 Now, division takes place.→ 2x = 18 → x = 18/2→ x = 9 ⇒ Now, let's find the NUMBERS.5x = 5 × (x)= 5 × 9 = 45 3x = 3 × (x)= 3 × 9 = 27Therefore, the numbers are 45 and 27. |
