Answer 2

Given,

Sum of 2 numbers = 15,

The quotient of these 2 numbers = 2.

To find,

The numbers.

Solution,

Firstly, let's suppose the two numbers be x and y.

As it is given that their sum is 15. So,

x + y = 15     ...(1)

Now, the quotient of the two is given as 2. So, by dividing one number by the other, we should get 2. That is,

$\frac{x}{y} =2$     ...(2)

From above equation (2), we can see that,

x = 2y

Substituting this value in equation (1), we get,

2y + y = 15

⇒ 3y = 15

⇒ y = 5.

Since from equation (2),

x = 2y

⇒ x = 2(5)

⇒ x = 10.

Therefore, the two numbers whose sum is 15 and the quotient is 2, are 10 and 5.
