If the ratio of two numbers is 5:2, whaat is the ratio to their sum to their difference?

Sagot :

Let the numbers be x and y

[tex]5 + 2 = 7[/tex]

It implies that,

[tex]x :y = 5:2[/tex]

So, it also says that

[tex]x + y = 5 + 2 \\ x + y = 7[/tex]

The difference is

[tex]5 - 2 = 3[/tex]

So, last ratio is

[tex]7:3[/tex]
