0.28=0.2+0.08
Or
0.28=2/10+8/100
Or
0.28=(2*1/10)+(8*1/100)
Or
0.28=(2*1/10^1)+(8*1/10^2)
Answer:
a : b = 4 : 3
Step-by-step explanation:
(mark as brainlist answer)
According to the given condition is the question :
Two numbers a and b are such that the sum of 5% of a and 4% of b is two-third of the sum of 6% of a and 8% of b
⇒ (5% of a) + (4% of b) = (2/3) × [(6% of a) + (8% of b)
⇒ 0.05a + 0.04b = 2/3 × (0.06a + 0.08b)
⇒ 0.15a + 0.12b = 0.12a + 0.16b
⇒ 0.03a = 0.04b
⇒ a/b = 4/3
⇒ a : b = 4 : 3
