- Sum of 5 times of a number and 3 times of another number is 63.
- Sum of 7 times of the first number and 3 times of second number is 81.
To find:
- Original numbers?
Solution:
☯ Let the first and second number be x and y respectively.
★ According to the Question:
- Sum of 5 times of a number and 3 times of another number is 63.
➯ 5x + 3y = 63 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀❬ eq (❶) ❭
- Sum of 7 times of the first number and 3 times of second number is 81.
➯ 7x + 3y = 81⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ❬ eq (❷) ❭
⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Using Elimination method:
- Subtracting eq (1) from eq (2),
➯ (7x + 3y) - (5x + 3y) = 81 - 63
➯ 2x = 18
➯ x = 18/2
➯ x = 9
Now, Substituting value of "x" in eq (1),
➯ 5(9) + 3y = 63
➯ 45 + 3y = 63
➯ 3y = 63 - 45
➯ 3y = 18
➯ y = 18/3
➯ y = 6
Hence,
- The First number, x = 9
- The second number, y = 6
