Question

24 divided into 2 parts such that 7 times of the first part added to 5 times of second parts make 146.find each number

Answer 1

heya friend!!☺☺
here's your answer!!☺☺
Let the first part be x. Then the second part is 24 - x.
=> 7x + 5(24 - x) = 146
=> 7x + 120 - 5x = 146
=> 2x = 146 - 120
=> x = 26/2
=> x = 13

then 24-13=11

hence the numbers are 13 and 11...
hope it helps you!!☺☺☺

Answer 2

Let first part be x Second part24-x 7x+5(24-x)=146 7x+120-5x=146 2x+120=146 2x=146-120 x=26/2 x=13 First part=13 Second part=24-13=11
