Question

sum of 2 numbers is 280 . one number is twice the other find the numbers​

Answer 1

Answer:

93.3, 186.67

Step-by-step explanation:

one number is = x

second number is = 2x

x + 2x = 280

3x = 280

x = 280 ÷ 3

x = 93.3

One number is = 93.3

Second number is = 2x = 2 × 93.3= 186.67

Answer 2

Answer:

Let one number be x

Another number be 2x

Given,

Sum of two numbers = 280

=> x + 2x = 280

=> 3x = 280

=> x = 280 / 3

.•. x = 93.33

another number = 2x = 2×93.33 = 186.66
