Question

Divide 38 into two parts such that one part is 18 more than the other.Find the value of the two parts.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

answer is 10 , 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first part be x.

so the other part is x+18.

According to question:

38=x+(x+18)

38=x+x+18

38=2x+18

20=2x

10=x

hence, the first part is x=10.

the other part is x+18=10+18=28.

Answer 2

Answer:

10 & 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one part be x. Then the other part will be (x + 18)

ATQ,

Sum of both parts = 38

→ x + x + 18 = 38

→ 2x + 18 = 38

→ 2x = 38 - 18

→ 2x = 20

→ x = 20/2

→ x = 10

One part = x = 10

Another part = x + 18 = 10 + 18 = 28
