Question

A number 37 is divided into two parts so that the sum of 5 times of first part And 11 times of second part is 227. If x is product of these two numbers, then the value of x is:

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 210

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be y

Let the second number be z

So x = y * z     ....(1)

=> y + z = 37    ......(2)  

Now According to question,

5y + 11z = 227    .....(3)

Multiplying (2) with 5 and then subtracting it from (3), we get

6z = 42

=> z = 7

Putting z = 7 in (2), we get y = 30

x = y * z

x = 30 * 7

x = 210
