If $$X : Y = 13 : 12$$ and $$X - Y = 2$$, then what is value of $$2X + 3Y$$ ?
Given $$\frac{X}{Y}$$ =$$\frac{13}{12}$$
X - Y = 2 OR X = Y+2
Putting the X value in the above equation we get,
$$\frac{Y+2}{Y}$$= $$\frac{13}{12}$$
12$$\times$$Y$$ $$ +24= 13$$\times$$Y$$ $$
So,Y=24 and X=Y+2=26
So, 2X + 3Y =2$$\times$$26$$ $$+ 3$$\times$$24$$ $$
$$\Rightarrow$$ 52+72 = 124.
