Question

One number is 2 1/2 times as large as another. The sum of the numbers is 28. Find the numbers.​

Answer 1

Let the number = x

Then the another number = 2 1/2 × x

= 5x / 2

x + 5x/2 = 28

$x + \frac{5x}{2} = 28 \\ \\ \frac{7x}{2} = 28 \\ \\ 7x = 2 8\times 2 \\ 7x = 56 \\ x = 56 \div 7 \\ x = 8$

x = 8

The other number = 28 - 8 = 20

Numbers = 8, 20
