Question

The sum of 2 consicutive multiples of 16 is 366 find their multiples

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let one multiple be x and other be x+16

ATW

x+x+16=366

2x=366-16

x=350/2

x=175

and x+16=175+16=191

Answer 2

GIVEN :-

• The sum of 2 consecutive multiples of 16 is 366.

TO FIND :-

• The multiples = ?

SOLUTION :-

Let, The consecutive multiples of 16 are x , (x + 16).

A.T.Q

=> x + x + 16 = 366

=> 2x + 16 = 366

=> 2x = 366 - 16

=> 2x = 350

=> x = 350/2

=> x = 175

Hence 2 multiples are,

=> 1st multiple = (x) = 175.

=> 2nd multiple = (x + 16) = 191.

VERIFICATION :-

1st multiple + 2nd multiple = sum of both multiples..

=> x + x + 16 = 366

=> 175 + 175 + 16 = 366

=> 366 = 366
