two numbers are in the ratio of 5:6. If X is subtracted from each of the numbers the ratio becomes 4:5. Find the number​

Answer»

Answer:

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

Let the 1ST no. be =x

2nd = y

x/y = 5/6

Let x=5k nd y=6k. (K is constant)

2nd CASE. When 7 is subtracted

x-7/y-7 = 4/5

5k-7/6k-7 = 4/5

5k-7(5) / 6k-7(4) = 0

25k-35= 24k-28

K= 7

No. are 5k ie 5*7=35

6k ie 6×7=42

Hope HELPS you:)!
