Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence the two parts of 4500 is 1500 and 3000 such that 5% of the first part is equal to the 10% of the second part.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

x+y = 4500

x = 4500-y

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

x/20 = y/10

10x = 20y

x = 2y

comparing both equation we get ;

2y = 4500-y

3y = 4500

y = 1500

x = 2×1500

= 3000

Answer 2

Answer:

4500 is been divided into

parts of 1500 and 3000.

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose x and y are two divided

parts of 4500. then

x+y=4500 __ (1)

given

5% of x = 10% of y

=>5x/100 = 10y/100

=>5x = 10y

=>x=2y

=>2y+y=4500

=>3y=4500

=>y=1500

=>x+1500=4500

=>x=4500−1500

=>x=3000

hence the 4500 is been divided into

parts of 1500 and 3000.
