Question

Sum of two number is 45 and the greater number is twice a smaller number. Find the numbers. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

15 & 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be 'a'.

Larger number = twice of a

= 2a

Sum of both the numbers is 45.

=> a + 2a = 45

=> 3a = 45

=> a = 45/3

=> a = 15

Numbers are 15 & 2a = 2(15) = 30

Answer 2

Answer:

✳️ Given ✳️

• Sum of two number is 45 and the greater number is twice a smaller number.

✳️ To Find ✳️

• What is the number.

✳️ Solution ✳️

✒️ Let, the number be x and 2x

➕ According to the question,

$\implies$ 2x + x = 45

$\implies$ 3x = 45

$\implies$ x = $\sf\dfrac{\cancel{45}}{\cancel{3}}$

$\dashrightarrow$ x = 15

$\therefore$ First number = 15

And, the second number = 2x = 2(15) = 30
