there are two positive numbers in the ratio 5 : 8 . if the larger number exceeds the smaller by 45 , then find the smaller number ?
"let the two positive numbers be 5 x and 8 x respectively . 8 x - 5 x = 45 3 x = 45 = > x = 15 = > smaller number = 5 x = 75 . answer : e"
divide(multiply(45, 5), const_4)
