Question

sum of two numbers is 103.if the greater numbers is divided by smaller number.the quotient is 2 and remainder is 19 find the numbers.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 103, x > y

divide by x we get

1 + y/x = 103/x

now according to the hypotesis

y/x = 2 + 19/x

then

1 + 2 + 19/x = 103/x

103/x - 19/x = 3

84/x = 3

x = 84/3 = 28

y = 2*28 + 19 = 75
