Sum of two number is 45 and the greatest number is twice the smaller number . Find the number.
- Sum of two numbers is 45
- the greatest number is twice the smaller number.
- find the number
let the number be x,
so smallest number = x
greatest number = 2x
sum = 45
x + 2x = 45
3x = 45
if the value of x = 15
so smallest number = 15
greatest number = 2 × 15 = 30 .
according to the question, sum = first number + second number
45 = 15+ 30
45 = 45
the sum of 15 and 30 is 45
so , it is verified ✓
Hence, we do it ✓

the two numbers be x and y.
where, x >y
--》x + y = 45 --》[1]
--》x = 2y ..(2)--》[2]
from [1]
--》x + y = 45
--》2y+y = 45--》[from 2]
--》3y = 45
--》y = 15
put this value in equation [1], we get
--》x + 15 = 45
--》x = 30
hence the two number is 30 and 15
--》30 + 15 = 45
--》= 45...
Hence Verifed...
