Question

One number is 12times another number.If 4 times the larger minus triple the smaller is 360,find the two numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the larger number be x and smaller number be y then

According to the question :

x = 12y .... (1)

4x-3y = 360 .... (2)

=> 4(12y)-3y = 360

=> 48y-3y = 360

=> 45y = 360

=> y = 8

So, x = 12×8 = 96

Thus, the larger number = 96 and smaller number = 8

Answer 2

Answer:

Let the first number be x.

Therefore, the second number is 12x.

Now, 4(12x) - 3(x) = 360

⇒48x -3x =360

⇒45x=360

∴x=360/45

=8

There first number is 8

Second number is 12x = 12×8=96
