∴ the two numbers are 44 and 66
Step-by-step explanation:
Q) Divide 110 into two parts so that one is one 50% of the other. what are the two numbers?
⇒ First, you must break down the problem into equations which you can solve. The method for doing this is known as solving by substitution:
The first equation you need defines the two parts of 110, x and y:
x + y = 110
The second equation defines the relationship that one part is 150% of the other:
x = y * 1.5
(150% is represented numerically as 1.5)
Now you must solve for one part, so we will choose x first. To do this you must remove the second component y from one of the equations. This will give you an equation with just x by itself. We are using the first equation to isolate y and the second equation to solve for x:
Take the first equation and get y by itself, giving you y in terms of x:
y = 110 - x
(Subtract x from both sides)
Now replace y in the second equation with that equivalent (this is the substitution part):
x = (110 - x) * 1.5
You can now solve for x:
x = 110*1.5 - 1.5x
(Multiply (110 - x) by 1.5 to simplify the right side of the equation)
x = 165 - 1.5x
(Add 1.5x to both sides of the equation to get x on the left side)
x + 1.5x = 165
(Add x and 1.5x)
2.5x = 165
(Divide both sides by 2.5 to get x by itself)
x = 165 / 2.5 = 66
Now that you have the value of x, plug it back in to the first equation, and solve for y:
66 + y = 110
(Subtract 66 from both sides)
y = 110 - 66 = 44
You have now solved the problem.
x = 66
y = 44
Check to be sure that x is 150% of y by calculating the following:
44 * 1.5 = 66
Finally, check to be sure that x and y add up to 110:
44 + 66 = 110
∴ the two numbers are 44 and 66
Answer:
44 and 66
Step-by-step explanation:
let us consider among two parts one part is x
another part=(110-x)
the %of the no=(x/10-x×100)
as per the question x)/110-x×100=150
:110-x=5/10
or ,10x-150=15x=1650
or ,25x=1650
or,x=1650
or x=66
one number is 66
another number is (150-66)=44 ans
