i do not know the answer
A:B = A:(30-A) = 2:3
3A = 2(30-A)
3A = 60-2A
A = 12
so B = 30-A = 18

check: 12:18 = 2:3 yes
A+B = 30
A = (2/3)B
(2/3)B+B = 30
2B+3B = 90
B = 18.
A+18 = 30
A = 12.
Two whole numbers A and B satisfy the following conditions. Find A and B.

A−B=18
A:B is equivalent to 11:5.

Two whole numbers A and B satisfy the following conditions. Find A and B.

A−B=25
A:B is equivalent to 13:8.

A=
, B=
A:B = 13:8 can be written as A = 13x and B = 8x for some positive integer x.

Now we know that A - B = 25, so substitute the above expressions in the equation:

13x - 8x = 25

5x = 25

x = 5

So, A = 13x = 13(5) = 65

And B = 8x = 8(5) = 40

Therefore, A = 65 and B = 40.
