Question

divide 2400 into two parts such that 11% of the first part equals to 13% of the second part
​

Answer 1

Answer:

1300, 1100

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 1st part be x. Second part = 2400-x

11% of first part = 11x/100

13% of second part = 13(2400-x)/100

Since they are equal,

11x/100=13(2400-x)/100

11x=31200-13x

24x=31200

x=31200/24=1300

First part = 1300, Second part = 2400-1300=1100

Answer 2

Answer:

1300 and 1100

Step-by-step explanation:

let first part be x

hence second part becomes 2400-x

or, 13*x=(2400-x)*11

equating these you will get the answer
