one of the possible values of x & y are 9 & 12 if (84)x is equal to (64)y

Step-by-step explanation:

(84)x is equal to (64)y

=> 8x + 4 = 6y+ 4

= > 8x = 6y

=> 4x = 3y

x > 8 as it have digit 8

x = 9

4*9 = 3y

y = 12

one of the possible values of x & y are 9 & 12

if x = 12 then y = 16

many possible solutions

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sol:

given (84)x = (64)y  

8 . x^1 + 4 . x^0  = 6 . y^1 + 4 . y^0 | according to number systems in digital               logic

8x + 4 = 6y + 4

8x = 6y  ---- final equation

now x > 8  | 8 is the greatest decimal digit in both sides

so the answer is x = 9 and y = 12
