Question

A number is 3/5
times another number. If their sum is 88, find the numbers​

Answer 1

Answer:

x+3x/5=88

5x+3x/5=88

8x/5=88

8x=88×5=440

x=440/8=55

numbers are x=55 and 3(55)/5=33

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let 1st number =x

and let 2nd number = 3/5 x

so, x+3/5x= 88

5x+3x/5=88

8x/5=88

x=88*5/8

x=55

1st number =x=55

2nd number =3/5x=3/5*55

=33
