Answer 1

The greater part is 26

The smaller part is 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Divide 48 into two part such that three times the greater part is 10 less than four times the smaller part.

To find : The smaller and greatest part?

Solution :

Let the greater part be x

Then, The smaller part is 48-x

According to question,

3x+10=4(48-x)3x+10=4(48−x)

3x+10=192-4x3x+10=192−4x

7x=1827x=182

x=26x=26

Therefore,

The greater part is 26

The smaller part is 48-26=22.
