Question

Find two numbers if their difference is 90, and their ratio is 5:8.

Answer 1

Answer:

150 and 240 are the two numbers having difference as 90 and ratio as 5 : 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ratio of two numbers is 5 : 8 ,

lets assume two numbers be 5x and 8x.

Difference of two numbers = 8x - 5x = 90

⇒3x =90

⇒x = 90/3=30

so two numbers are 5x = 5 × 30 = 150 and 8x = 8 × 30 = 240

Hence 150 and 240 are the two numbers having difference as 90 and ratio as 5 : 8.
