Answer:
4a + b = 65 ---------(1)
a + 2b = 35 ---------(2)
multiply (1) with number 2
(1) ×2 => (4a + b) × 2 = 65 × 2
=> 8a + 2b = 130 ----------(3)
now subtract (2) from (3)
(3) - (2) => ( 8a + 2b ) - ( a + 2b ) = 130 - 35
=> 8a +2b - a - 2b = 95
+2b and -2b will get cancelled,
8a - a = 7a
=> 7a = 95
=> a = 95/7
from (2) substitute a
=> (95/7) + 2b = 35
=> 2b = 35 - (95/7)
=> 2b = 150/7
=> b = 150/14
=> b = 75/7
