The sum of two positive numbers is 5 times their difference.

X + Y = 5 ( X - Y)
X + Y = 5X - 5Y
-4X = -6Y
4X = 6Y
X = 6/4 = 3/2
Y = 4/6 = 2/3

The ratio of the larger number to the smallest number is 3/2

For one to one function each element in the domain is mapped on to an one and only one element in the co-domain.

The could be some elements in the co-domain that are not being used.

For a function to be one to one, then for

f(x) = f(y)
if and only if

x = y

For an onto function all the elements in the co-domain must be used up.

In order words, the co-domain=Range

The condition is
f(x) \rightarrow \: y
