Question

the diffrence of 2 numbers is 5 and their quotient is 5 what are the two numbers

Answer 1

Answer:

according to the question

x - y = 5 equation 1

x/y = 5. equation 2

from equation 1

x = 5 + y

putting value of x in equation 2

(5 + y) / y = 5

5 + y = 5y

4y = 5

y= 5/4

putting value of y in equation 2

(x) / (5/4) = 5

4x/5 = 5

4x = 25

x = 25/4

hence the two numbers are 5/4 and 25/4
