The two numbers are 3 and 12 when 15 is the result of sum two numbers. One to two are compared in a 4:1 ratio.
Given that,
15 is the result of adding two numbers. One to two are compared in a 4:1 ratio.
We have to find which two numbers are they.
We know that,
Let take x and y to denote the two numbers
We get
x + y = 15 ----->equation(1)
x = 4y ----->equation(2)
Substitute the 4y in equation(1)
(4y) + y = 15
5y = 15
Divide both sides by 5
y = 3.
Substitute y=3 in equation(2)
x=4(3)
x = 12
Therefore, The two numbers are 3 and 12 when 15 is the result of adding two numbers. One to two are compared in a 4:1 ratio.
