Question

Divide 72 into two parts such that one part is one third of the other part

Answer 1

Answer:

Let one part be X .

So , According to question ,

other would be X/3

Now ,

$x + \frac{x}{3} = 72$

$\frac{3x + x}{3} = 72$

$\frac{4x}{3} = 72$

$4x = 216$

$x = \frac{216}{4}$

$x = 54$

So ,

One number is 54 and the other is 54/3 = 18
