⛦ To find :
- The numbers.
⛦ Solution :
As it is given that the sum of two numbers is 147. And one number is 6 times the other.
So,
•Let the first number be x
•And second will be 6(x) = 6x
According to Question,
⟼ 6x + x = 147
⟼ 7x = 147
⟼ x = 147/7
⟼ x = 21
Therefore,
- First number = x = 21
- Second number = 6x = 6 × 21 = 126
_______________
Checking the answer :
As per Question given :
First number + Second number = 147
→ 126 + 21 = 147
→ 147 = 147
Thus, L.H.S = R.H.S.
Hence, Checked !!
