Question

the sum of two numbers is 100 if the part of one is two more than the fourth part of the other then find both the numbers​

Answer 1

Answer:

Here is the answer:-

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y . Then ,

x = 100 - y , eq(1)

x/5 = 2 + y/4

4x = 40 + 5y

4(100-y) = 40 + 5y

400 - 4y = 40 + 5y

360 = 9y

y = 40

x = 100 - 40 = 60
