It is always best to show examples with such types of questions.
Q: The ratio of two numbers is 3 to 4 and their sum is 84. What are their numbers?
A: We decide to use N for the numerator and D for denominator.
(a) N/D = 3/4 and (b) N + D = 84
We will cross multiply in (a), and then solve (b) for D and substitute into (a).
(a) N/D = 3/4 --> 4N = 3D (b) N + D = 84
4N = 3(84 - N) - substituted
4N = 252 - 3N - multiplied
7N = 252 - simplified
N = 36 - divided
Since N + D = 84, then D = 84 - 36 = 48
You now have N and D Solved
That in short is two statement or equality.

Another form is:
Q: The sum of two numbers is 128 and their difference is 44. What are the numbers?
A: A little thought is choosing the variables is often helpful. Here we have two numbers. One is greater than the other, so we will use S to represent the small number and L to represent the large number. The equations are:
(a) L + S = 128 and (b) L - S = 44
We will solve the equations by using elimination.
(a) L + S = 128
(b) L - S = 44
-----------------
2L = 172 simplified
L = 82 solved
Thus,
S = 128 - 86 --> S = 42
Hope that helps.

Which statements is true out of the following one statement here is false. two statements here are false. three statements here are false.?
The statement "two statements here are false" must be true. If that statement is true, then it means one of the other two statements ("one statement here is false" or "three statements here are false") must be false, making the total count of false statements two. If "three statements here are false" were true, it would contradict itself, as it cannot be true if it includes itself as a false statement.
