Answer:30 & 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number ve divided into two parts as:
x= greater part, and
y=lesser part.
By question,
x+y=50.....(1)
(1/3)of x=(1/2)of y.....(2)
Or, x/3=y/2
Or, 2x=3y
Or, x=(3/2)y
From (1), (3/2)y+y=50
Or, (3y+2y)/2=50
Or, 5y=50×2
Or, y=20
Therefore x=50-20=30
Hence, greater part(x)=30, &
Lesser part(y)=20
