Question

sum of two numbers is 45 and greater number is twice the smaller number. find the numbers

Answer 1

Your answer is ---

let the two numbers be x and y . and x > y

•°• according to question

x + y = 45 ......(1)

&

x = 2y .....(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

Answer 2

Hola

Here is your answer

Given - Sum of two numbers - 45

Greater number twice the smaller one.


To find - The numbers


Calculation - Let the smaller number be x

and greater 2x


thus,

2x + x = 45


3x = 45


x = 45/3


x = 15


Thus the value of numbers


Greater number = 2x = 2(15) = 30


Smaller number = x = 15


Hope it helps
