1/5 of a number is equal to 5/8 of the second number. If 35 is added to the first number then it becomes 4 times of second number. What is the second number ?
125
70
40
25
Correct Option: C
Let first and second numbers are p & q. p/5 = 5q/8 ∴ p/q = 25/8 ...(i) p + 35 = 4q or 25q/8 + 35= 4q ∴ q = 40.
