If the difference between two numbers is 52 and they are in the ratio 7 : 3, then find the greater of the two numbers.

Correct option is C

Given:

The difference of the two numbers = 52 

Ratio of these numbers = 7 : 3 

Solution:

Let the greater number = 7x 

smaller number = 3x 

According to the question 

7x- 3x = 52 

4x = 52 

x = 13 

then the grater number = 7x = 7$$\times13 = 91$$​​
