Question

the sum of two numbers is 110 one fifth of the larger number is 8 more than 19 of the smaller number find the number ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number be p and the smaller number be q.

Given:-

• p+q=110__________(1)
• 1/5(p)=8+19(q)

1/5(p)=8+19q

p=5(8+19q)

p=40+95q________(2)

Substitute (2) in (1) we get

40+95q+q=110

96q=110-40=70

q=70/96

Substitute q in (1) we get

p=1130/96
