    Answer:

    x = 24

    . So, first number = 7 * 24 = 168. and second number = 4 * 24 = 96. Therefore the numbers are 168 and 96.

    Answer:

    42 and 24

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The numbers in ratio 7 : 4 = 7x : 4x ( x is a multiplier ) , then

    7x – 4x = 18 ( difference of 2 numbers is 18 )

    3x = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )

    x = 6

    Then

    7x = 7 × 6 = 42

    4x = 4 × 6 = 24

    The numbers are 42 and 24
