Answer:
30 and 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:-
The sum of two consecutive multiples of 5 is 65.
To Find:-
The numbers
Solution:-
Let the two consecutive multiples of 5 be 5x, 5x+5 (This is old model but today we just use the numbers be x,x+5 but old one is better)
The Sum of 5x and 5x+5 is 65. So,
ACQ,
5x + 5x + 5 = 65
→ 10x + 5 = 65
→ 10x = 65 - 5
→ 10x = 60
→ x = 60/10
→ x = 6
1st multiple = 5x = 5 × 6 = 30
2nd multiple = 5x + 5 = 5(6) + 5 = 30 + 5 = 35
