The product of two numbers is 5/4. If one number is (-3/5).If one number is find the other number.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of two numbers is 15. If one number is 5, what is the other number?
It seems you are using a number system with at least 6 digits. Let us assume the numbers are in base n .
We try to solve.
x∗y=15n
x=5n
Let us rewrite this (in base 10 ):
x∗y=n+5
x=5
Now it is easy to obtain the result:
5y=n+5
⇒y=n5+1,n≥6
Assuming you are using base 6 : y=2.2
Assuming you are using base 7 : y=2.4
Assuming you are using base 8 : y=2.6
Assuming you are using base 9 : y=2.8
Assuming you are using base 10 : y=3.0
Assuming you are using base 11 : y=3.2
Assuming you are using base 12 : y=3.4
Assuming you are using base 13 : y=3.6
…
Assuming you are using base 205 : y=42
As we can see, the base is of course 205 , and the solution (like always…) 42;-)
Therefore, the complete equation is:
5205∗4210=15205
