Given :-

The difference between the two numbers is 48.

The ratio of the two numbers is 7 : 3.

To Find :-

The Two Numbers

Solution :-

Let the first number be 7x

And the second number be 3x

According to the Question,

⇒ 7x - 48= 3x

⇒ 7x-3x = 48

⇒ 4x = 48

⇒ x = 48/4

⇒ x = 12

1st number is= 7x = 84

2nd number= 3x = 36

Hence, 84 and 36 are the two number
