​

Answer 1

HELLO HERE IS YOUR ANSWER.....

LET x AND y BE THE REQD NUMBERS.

THEN, BY QUESTION..

x - y = 69

OR x = 69 + y.......... (1)

AND x/y = 4

OR x = 4y

PUTTING x= 4y IN EQN. (1).. WE GET.....

4y = 69 + y

OR 4y - y = 69

OR 3y = 69

OR y = 69/3

= 23

AGAIN ..

x = 4× 23

= 92

HENCE THE TWO REQD NOS. ARE 23 AND 92.
