Q1) Three numbers are in the ratio 4:5:6. If the sum of the largest and the smallest equals the sum of the third and 55, find the numbers.
Q2) four- fifths of a number is 10 more than two-thirds of the number. Find the number.
please give me the answer!!

Step-by-step explanation:
ratio of number = 4:5:6
then the no. be 4x, 5x and 6x
a/q
6x+4x= 5x+55
10x-5x= 55
5x= 55
x= 11
hence the no. be 4x= 44
5x= 55
6x= 66
2)
let the no. be x
4/5 of x = 4x/5
2/3 of no. = 2x/3
their differences= 10
a/q
4x/5 - 2x/3 = 10
(12x-10x)/15= 10
2x/15= 10
2x= 150
x= 75
#666

Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\large\underline{\sf{Solution-1}}[/tex]
Given that three numbers are in the ratio 4 : 5 : 6.
Let assume that numbers be 4x, 5x, 6x.
According to statement, the sum of the largest and the smallest equals the sum of the third and 55.
So, it means
[tex]\sf \: 6x + 4x = 5x + 55 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf \: 10x = 5x + 55 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf \: 10x - 5x = 55 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf \: 5x = 55 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf\implies \sf \: x = 11 \\ \\ [/tex]
Thus,
First number = 4x = 4 × 11 = 44
Second number = 5x = 5 × 11 = 55
Third numbers = 6x = 6 × 11 = 66
Hence,
[tex]\sf\implies \sf \: Numbers\:are\:44, 55 \: and \: 66 \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]\large\underline{\sf{Solution-2}}[/tex]
Let number be x.
According to statement, four- fifths of a number is 10 more than two-thirds of the number.
[tex]\sf \: \dfrac{4x}{5} = 10 + \dfrac{2x}{3} \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf \: \dfrac{4x}{5} - \dfrac{2x}{3} = 10 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf \: \dfrac{12x - 10x}{15}= 10 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf \: \dfrac{2x}{15}= 10 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf \:x = \dfrac{15}{2} \times 10 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf \:x = 15 \times 5 \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf\implies \sf \:x = 75 \\ \\ [/tex]
Hence,
[tex]\sf\implies \sf \:Number\:is \: 75 \: \\ \\ [/tex]
Thus,
[tex]\qquad \:\boxed{\begin{aligned}& \qquad \:\sf \:(1) \: \: Numbers\:are\:44, 55 \: and \: 66\qquad \: \\ \\& \qquad \:\sf \: (2) \: \: Number\:is \: 75 \end{aligned}} \qquad \: \\ \\ [/tex]
