✪QUESTION✪:-

the product of two numbers is 16/1/2. if one of the numbers is 2/3/4 what is the other number?

✪GIVEN✪:-

➥One number

➥$\frac{2}{ \frac{3}{4} }$

➥$\frac{2 \times 4}{3}$

➥$\frac{8}{3}$

➥product of two numbers

➥$\frac{16}{ \frac{1}{2} }$

➥$\frac{16 \times 4}{ 1}$

➥64

✪TO FIND✪:-

• Another number (x)

✪ANSWER✪:-

➠$\frac{8}{3} \times x = 64$

➠$x = 64 \times \frac{3}{8}$

➠$x = 8 \times 3$

➠$x = 24$

Answer 2

Given,

Product of two numbers $\[ = 16\frac{1}{2}\]$

One number $\[ = 2\frac{3}{4}\]$

Other number = ?

Solution,

Consider the other number is x.

$\[2\frac{3}{4} \times x = 16\frac{1}{2}\]$

$\[\frac{{11}}{4} \times x = \frac{{33}}{2}\]$

$\[ \Rightarrow x = \frac{{33}}{2} \times \frac{4}{{11}}\]$

$\[ \Rightarrow x = 6\]$

Hence the other number is 6.
