Question

The sum of two numbers is 110 one fifth of the larger number is 8 more than one ninth of the smallest number find the numbers

Answer 1

Let the small no. be x

one ninth of x = 1/9x

x/9+8 = one fifth of large no.

(x/9+8)×5 = large no.

5x/9+40 = large no.

.......Q/A

x+5x/9+40 = 110

(9x+5x)/9+40 = 110

14x/9 = 110-40

14x = 70×9

14x = 630

x = 630/14

x = 45 (small no.)

110-45 = 65(large no.)
