Question 867966
<pre>
One nu7mber is 2/3 of another number. The sum of the numbers is 25. Find the two numbers. 

Let one number be x
Then the other number is {{{2*x/3}}}
Sum = {{{x + 2*x/3}}} = {{{5*x / 3 = 25}}}
i.e. {{{5*x = 75}}} or {{{x = 15}}}

So one number is {{{higlight(15)}}} and the other number is {{{15*2/3}}} = {{{highlight(10)}}}

Sum is 15 + 10 = 25. Correct :)

Hope you got it!
