(a)The ratio of two numbers in 3: 5. If their sum is 248, find the numbers.(i) 83,155(ii) 73,255(ii) 93,155iv

Answer»

Let the ratio be x.

Then, the numbers in the ratio are 3x and 5x.

Now, sum=248-> 3x+5x=248-> 8x=248-> x=248/8-> x= 31

Now, numbers are-3x=3*31=935x=5*31=155

let the number be xthen the numbers are 3x and 5x3x+5x=2488x=248x=248÷8x=31

nownumbers

3x=3×31=935x=5×31=155
