Answer:

25 and 15  

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we were given two parts to be in ratio 5:3

the first number is then 5x , and second number 3x

Note that the second number is more than the first so it becomes

3x + 10

5x = 3x +10,     5x - 3x = 10

2x = 10,     x = 5

from the question,  we find the two parts ;

the first number would be 5x

5 x 5 = 25

and second number, 3x = 3x 5 = 15

so the two numbers are  25 and 15..    25 + 15 = 40
