Question

Split 60 in two parts such that three-sevenths of one part should be equal to the three-fifths of other
part. Find the parts.​

Answer 1

Answer:

First part = 35

second part = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first part be x .

The second part is 60 - x .

3/7x = 3/5 (60 - x)

= 3/7 x = 36 - 3/5x

=3/5 x + 3/7 x = 36

= 36 / 35 x = 36

So , x = 35

First part = 35

second part = 25

(You can verify by substituting the values of x )
