Question

A 2Digit Number Is Divided By Onother 2Digit Number Gives 5.875.What Are The Numbers?

Answer 1

Answer:

94/16

Step-by-step explanation:

5.875 can be written as 5875/1000.

Continuous simplification by of 5875/1000 gives 47/8.

• N = 5875 ÷ 5 = 1175

        D = 1000  ÷ 5 = 200

• N = 1175 ÷ 5 =235

        D = 200 ÷ 5 =40

• N = 235÷5 = 47

        D = 40 ÷ 5 = 8

As we need 2digit numbers on both the numerator and denominator, we can multiply 47/8 by 2 on both sides. Which gives us 94/16.

N = 47 * 2 = 94

D = 8 * 2 = 16
