Question

divide 84 into two parts such that half of the first part is 4 less than the half of the other part​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:let 2 parts be x and (84-x)

ATQ: x/2 =(84-x)/2-4

4*2=(84-x-2)

x=82-8=74

parts: 74 and 10

Answer 2

let the half part be x
so, x - 4 + x = 84
2x - 4 = 84
2x =84 - 4
2x = 80
x= 40
