Question

. Divide 64 into two parts such that one part is 3 times the other. [ Hint : one part = x, other part = 64-x ]

Answer 1

step 1 - take no. ( part ) as x

step 2 - 3+1=4

steo 3 64 divide by 4 = 16

step 5 one part = 16

step 5 - 16multiply 3 = 48

step 6 - 16+48 =64

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1.let one part be X

2.second part must be 3 times the other which means it is 3x

3.both parts together must be equal to 64

4. x+3x=64

4x =64

X=64/4

X=16

3x=16*3

3x=48

therefore two parts are 16 and 48
