Question

200 into two parts such that one third of the first and the one half of the secondary equal

Answer 1

let the first number be x
then , the second number will be = 200-x
according to the question  x/3=(200-x)/2
=2x=600-3x
=5x=600
=x=600/5==30
so
x=first number =30
then the second number will be =200-x=200-30=170


hence 30,170 is the answer
