✔A positive number is 5 times another number if 21 is added to both the numbers then one of the new numbers become to twice the other number what are the numbers ?✔
Answers
Answer:−
Given question:-
• A positive number is 5 times another number.
• If 21 is added to both the numbers.then one of the new numbers becomes twice the other new number.
To Find:-
We have to find what are the numbers.
Hence:-
Let x be the one number and let y be the other number.
Equation (1) – [x = 5y]
Therefore:-
1st number (x + 21)
2nd number (y + 21)
Given question:-
=x + 21
=2 (y+21)
=x + 21
=2y + 42
=5y + 21
=2y + 42
=5y−2y
=42−21
=3y
=21
⟶y=7
Adding values:-
⟶x = 5 (7)
⟶x = 35
⟶x=5(7)
⟶x=35
[.•.] Therefore, 35 and 7 are the numbers.

Let the numbers be x and 5x. According to the question,
21 + 5x = 2(x + 21)
21 + 5x = 2x + 42
Transposing 2x to L.H.S and 21 to R.H.S, we obtain
5x − 2x = 42 − 21
3x = 21
Dividing both sides by 3, we obtain
x = 7
5x = 5 × 7 = 35
Hence, the numbers are 7 and 35 respectively.
