Question

divide 4500 into two parts such that 10% of first is equal to 5% of second part​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

let x and y be two divided parts of 4500, then ;

x+y = 4500

x = 4500-y

(10/100)x = (5/100)y

x/10 = y/20

20x = 10y

x = y/2

comparing both equation we get ;

y/2 = 4500-y

9000-y/2 = y

y = 3000

x = 4500-3000

x = 1500

hence the 4500 is been divided into two parts of 1500 & 3000.

Answer 2

Answer:

1500 and 3000 is answer
