M sorry for my privious ans ..lyk others even i havnt read
question properly
let 1st no is x and 2nd is y
(20/100)*x + y = (50/100)*y+y
(20/100)*x = (50/100)*y
x/y = 50/20
x/y = 5/2
so Correct ans is x : y = 5 : 2

Answer / priya
let 1st no is x and 2nd is y
(20/100)*x + y = (50/100)*x+x
y = (50/100)*x + x - (20/100)*x
y = (30/100)*x +x
y = x ( 30/100 + 1)
y/x = (130/100)
y/x = 13/10
so ans is x : y = 10 : 13
