Q: Answer-Sum of the two numbers is 6 times their difference. Then the numbers are in the ratio.

ATQ, Let the two number be x and y x y 6x-y So, x y 6x - 6y So, 7y 5x. Now, we can express y in terms of x y 57x The ratio of the two numbers x and y is given by Ratio xy Substitute the expression for y in terms of x Ratio x57x To get rid of the fraction in the denominator, multiply both the numerator and denominator by 7 Ratio 7x5x Now, simplify the ratio Ratio 75 So, the numbers are in the ratio of 75.
