Question

36. If x and (150 – x) are two numbers such that their sum is 150 and the greater of two numbers is 9 times tt smaller, find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Answer:

15 , 135

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be x

Then, greater number will be 9x

According to the question ,  

                                        = x + 9x = 150

                                        = 10x = 150

                                        = x = 150/10

                                              = 15

Smaller number = 15

Greater number = 9x = 15 * 9

                                   = 135
