Give a quick stream of consciousness before answering the following question. Two numbers are in the ratio 3 : 4. If the sum of numbers is 63, find the numbers.
Options:
(A) 26,37
(B) 25,38
(C) 27,36
(D) 28,35
(E) 29,34
Sum of the terms of the ratio = 3 + 4 = 7
Sum of numbers = 63
Therefore, first number = 3/7 × 63 = 27
Second number = 4/7 × 63 = 36
Therefore, the two numbers are 27 and 36.
The answer: (C).
