There are two numbers , 1 st number is 12 more than the 2nd number . The average of the two numbers is 19. If 2 is added in both numbers , find the ratio of the numbers . Correct Answer 9: 5
ATQ, x - y = 12 x + y = 38 ....................... 2x = 50 (Adding the equations) Or, x = 25 So, y = 13 Then, if 2 is added in both numbers , find the ratio of the numbers = x + 2/y + 2 = 27/15 = 9/5
