Question

Divide 36 into two parts in such a way that twice the first part and five times the second part add up to 120.​

Answer 1

Answer:

let 2 part be x and y

now, x + y = 36

     = x = 36 - y

now,

     2x + 5y = 120

=   2 ( 36 - y ) + 5y = 120

=   72 - 2y + 5y = 120

=   3y =   48

=   y =  16

now,

x = 20

Answer 2

Answer:write your two hints in mathematical form: 36 is divided in two parts: easy peasy, the two parts must add to 36. x + y =36. 5 times of first part ( 5x ), added to 3 times the second part (3y), makes 142: 5x + 3x = 142

Explanation:Step-by-step explanation:

Let one part of 36 be x

So, another part of 36 is 36 - x

Here, given that 2 times of one part and 5 times of second part

A/Q

2(x)+5(36-x)=120

2x+180-5x=120

180-120=5x-2x

60=3x

x=20

So, one part is 20

And another part is 36 - 20=16
