Answer 1

Answer:

Hey mate following is your ans

ans

let 1st natural no=x

2nd =9-x

1/x+ 1/9-x=1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

3 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

let two no be x and y;

x+y=9;--------1

1/x + 1/y = 1/2 , (x+y)/xy = 1/2;

9/xy = 1/2;

xy = 18 , x=18/y

18/y + y = 9;

18 + y² = 9y

y² - 9y + 18 = 0;

on solving y = 6 or y = 3;

hence x can be either 3 or 6;

hence the number can be either x = 3 , y=6 ( or vice versa)

I hope this is clear to you now;
