Question

If 3 is added to the first number, the sum is just the double of the second number and if 6
is subtracted from the second number the remaining sum is 1/5 of the first number. Find
the numbers.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

first number= 15

second number=9

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be x and the second number be y.

3+x=2y....

i.e.x-2y=-3...(1)

y-6=⅕x

i.e.5y-30=x

I.e.x-5y=-30..(2)

subtracting eqn2 from 1

x -2y = -3

x - 5y = -30

(-). (+). (+)

therefore 3y=27

y=9

substituting y=9 in eqn (1)

therefore x=15
