Two numbers are in ratio 3:7 if they differ by 36 find the numbers

Answers 1

Answer: The numbers are 27 and 63.

Explanation:

We will assume two variables here according to the given ratio in the question.

Let us assume two variables 3x and 7x respectively.

Now, it is given in the question that the difference of the two number is 36 (Given in the question itself).

Therefore,

[tex]7x - 3x = 36[/tex]

[tex]4x = 36\\x = 9[/tex]

Since, [tex]x = 9[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]3x = 3*9 = 27[/tex]

[tex]7x = 7*9 = 63[/tex]

Hence, the required numbers are 27 and 63 respectively.
