If two numbers are in the ratio 2:3. If 10 is added to both of the numbers then the ratio becomes 5:6then find the smallest number?  Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) 22/3  B) 19/3  C) 20/3  D) 25/3  E) 24/3
2:3   2x + 10 : 3x + 10 = 5 : 6   6[2x + 10] = 5[3x + 10]   12x + 60 = 15x + 50   15x -12x = 60 - 50   3x = 10, then X=10/3   Then the first number is = 2   2x = 10   Option 20/3
