Question

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

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let 1st part=x

let 2nd part =y

5%of the first part is equal to 10% of the second part

5x/100=10y/100

y=5x/100*100/10

y=1/2x

1/2x+x=4500

3x/2=4500

x=4500*2/3

x=3000

y=1500

to verify,

x+y=4500

3000+1500=4500

4500=4500

LHS. =RHS.
