The ratio of two computers is 3:2. 1.If the first computer costs 55000/=,what is the price of the second computer?

2.If the price of 2nd computer is 2000/= more, what is the ratio of. the computers?

1. $82,500

2. 169 : 110

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

1. Ratio between two computers is 3:2

And the first computer cost is $55,000

Let us assume the price of the second computer be x.

As we know that

Product of extremes = Product of mean.

2 : 3 :: 55000 : x .

Now cross mutiplication is to be done

2x = $55,000 × 3

x = $1,650,000 ÷ 2

= $82,500

2. Now if the price of the 2nd computer rised by $2,000

So the new cost would be

= $82,500 + $2,000

= $84,500

Now the ratio would be

= $55,000 :  $84,500

= 169: 110
