The ratio between two numbers is 8 : 3 and their difference is 20. Find the numbers?

48 and 28

28 and 12

32 and 12

None of these

Let's denote the two numbers as 8x and 3x, where x is a common multiplier.

Given that their difference is 20:

8x - 3x = 20

5x = 20

x = 4

Now, let's find the numbers:

First number: 8x = 8 * 4 = 32

Second number: 3x = 3 * 4 = 12
