Choose one:
A) 30 B) 35 C) 40 D) 45 E) 20
assume two numbers are x and y   x/y = 2/3.. 2x = 3y ----1   The number 50 is divided into two equal parts. If you make equal parts there is no question of Largest part and Smallest Part. So assuming 50 is devided in to two parts.   x+ y = 50 ---- 2   simplyfy 1 and 2 x =30 and y = 20   30NSWER:30
